A video of the incident went viral on 25-08-2023, leading to calls for action against the teacher and the school.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Commission further observed that the contents of the media report, if true, amount to a violation of the victim&#8217;s human rights and accordingly issued notices to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police, Uttar Pradesh calling for a detailed report in the matter within four weeks. The detailed report should include the action taken against the teacher, the status of the FIR registered in the matter and compensation if any, paid to the aggrieved family, as well as steps
