Imphal, June 19 2015 :
Khurai constituency MLA Dr Ng Bijoy expressed unhappiness on Friday over incidents of beating of students by their teachers.
Apparently referring to the standoff between a teacher of St Joseph's School and DESAM over the beating of a Class VI student, the MLA, who was speaking during a function here, stated that teachers are not allowed to thrash their students while disciplining them.
He was participating in a Meritorious Award Distribution Ceremony 2015 organised by AMSU Imphal East District Committee at Khurai Popular High School ground, Khurai Thongam Leikai.
Students from Imphal East who obtained higher marks in the BOSEM and COHSEM exams 2015 were honoured on the occasion.
Dr Bijoy further said India stills lacks good teaching methodology and urged all students to be studious by spending more time on lessons.
Altogether 110 meritorious students were honoured at the function.
