Muzaffarnagar: Trainer asks college students to slap Muslim classmate, motion initiated

The accuser, Vishnu Dutt, claimed that Zubair uncovered the id of the boy by sharing a video of the incident on social media.
On a Friday, a video that includes Tripta Tyagi, a college instructor, grew to become extensively common on-line. The video depicted a scenario wherein a Muslim second-grade scholar was slapped by his fellow classmates, supposedly as a result of not finishing his homework. This prevalence drew in depth criticism.

Subsequently, on Saturday, a case was filed in opposition to the instructor beneath IPC sections 323 (pertaining to the punishment for voluntarily inflicting hurt) and 504 (involving intentional insult with the intent to impress a breach of peace). The criticism was lodged by the household of the boy concerned.

In her protection, Tyagi asserted that the video had been altered to provide a communal angle to the problem. She contended that the video had been recorded by the scholar’s uncle.
The instructor stated although it was fallacious on her half to get a scholar slapped by his classmates, she was compelled to do it as she is handicapped and was not in a position to rise up and attain the scholar who had not carried out his task.
