A video of two schoolboys thrashing one of their classmates in Bihar’s Muzaffarpur has once again brought into sharp focus the menace of bullying and violence in schools. The two boys are sons of a local jailed politician.
The two brothers kicked and punched the victim in front of the entire class after he complained to school authorities against them. The incident took place at the Kendriya Vidyalaya in Muzaffarpur’s Gannipur.
Police have filed a case against the assailants, who are now absconding. Meanwhile, the matter has reached the state Human Resources Development ministry, which has asked for a report on the matter.
