Arrest of Teachers!

Awarding corporal punishment to students is nothing new in our education system.Rather it's an age old practice.It's very sad Rawla committed suicide after being canned by the headmaster who also canned two other boys along with him for playing truant.Other students however didn't take the punishment as seriously as Rawla.In fact those who commit suicide are not in normal frame of mind.Perhaps so was Rawla.Headmaster begged appology for canning and promised not to use cane ever in life.Had he known Rawla was so sensitive a boy perhaps he would not have puunished him this way.After all he'd no bad intention.Why other three teachers behaved roughly with the boy as alleged is difficult to understand.Was the boy himself very unruly or mischievous?How was it conclusively proved canning led to suicide?Now on teachers would be afraid of chiding a student even under compelling situation lest he or she could be so hurt as to commit suicide.The whole episode is unfortunate!
