A government school teacher in Rajasthan’s Kotada district was suspended after allegedly pressuring a class nine student to abandon his exam midway in order to cut, skin and clean a chicken for the teacher’s personal use. The accused teacher, identified as Mohanlal Doda, sparked outrage among local residents, leading them to approach Minister Babulal Kharari to file a formal complaint.

In response to the complaint, Minister Kharari directed Sub-Divisional Officer Hasmukh Kumar to conduct a thorough investigation. The inquiry revealed that Doda had instructed Rahul Kumar Pargi, a student, to perform the chicken cleaning task during the exam, rather than allowing him to complete his studies.

During the investigation, additional complaints surfaced from other students. They revealed that Doda had dismissed the school cook about a month ago, leading to a lack of food for students since then. Based on the findings of the inquiry, the district education officer decided to suspend Doda.
