In a shocking incident, a Class 4 girl student was brutally assaulted by her teacher at a private institute in Dumduma Phase-2 area of the Capital city. The assault allegedly took place after the student reportedly struggled with her mathematics lessons.

According to the victim’s family, the young girl was beaten so severely that she sustained a deep injury near her left eye and was left bleeding profusely. She was immediately rushed to a private hospital, where she is currently undergoing treatment.

Doctors have confirmed that the injury, though serious, is not life-threatening, but the child remains under close medical observation.

Following the incident, the family lodged a formal complaint with the local police, demanding strict action against the teacher and the management of the coaching center. Police have registered a case and said that an investigation has been initiated.

Residents of the area have expressed shock and anger, calling for better regulations and monitoring of private schools, which often operate without strict oversight. As of now, neither the coaching center authorities nor the accused teacher has issued any statement in response to the allegations.

This incident has once again raised questions about student safety and accountability in private educational institutions across Odisha.
