Sheopur (Madhya Pradesh): A video of a government school teacher pushing students out of the classroom while shouting at them has come to the light from Madhya Pradesh’s Sheopur on Saturday.
According to reports, the incident took place at a government primary school in Matasula village of Sheopur district, where parents discovered children sitting in a classroom without any teacher present.
