Teachers resorting to corporal punishments and merciless beating is not new in India and a similar shocking incident has come to surface in Karnataka capital city of Bengaluru. a class 10 student was left with head injuries after he was beaten with an iron pipe by his private tutor at his coaching centre in Bengaluru’s Yelahanka.

The incident took place on August 6. Revealing horrific details, the 15-year-old boy’s mother told The Times of India that Kumar used the iron pipe to thrash her son black and blue and left the child bleeding around 5:30pm. Despite his deep injuries, the tutor kept him inside the tutorial till 8.30pm without alerting the parents, she said, accusing Kumar of abusing them when confronted about the incident.

Meanwhile, Kumar said that his intention was “not to beat, but threaten”. “Their classes were over by 5pm and I asked them to go home and not stand outside.
