PTI, DAMOH: Students of a government-run primary school at a village here were allegedly made to clean a toilet using their mid-day meal utensils, prompting the district authorities to order an inquiry into the incident.
The school staff has, however, denied the allegation. A group of parents yesterday reached the school at Doli village after their children complained that on Wednesday they were allegedly asked to clean the toilet using the utensils (thali) in which they were served their mid-day meal. One of the parents, Guddu Kushwaha, alleged that his daughter complained she was asked by the teachers to dispose of the human excreta in the toilet by using the mid-day meal plate.
“After returning from school, my daughter told me that she and other students were told to clean the waste (human excreta) in the toilet with the mid-day meal dishes (thalis). The school was closed when we reached to complain on Wednesday evening. We went there yesterday and complained against the incident,” Kushwaha said.
