In a tragic incident at a private playschool in northeast Delhi's Maujpur, a three-and-a-half-year-old boy allegedly suffered physical and sexual abuse. His father, Navneet Chaudhary, revealed that the child had been troubled for several days before his condition worsened on August 18. Upon returning home, the boy vomited and complained of dizziness, leading to an immediate visit to a pediatrician.
The pediatrician observed swollen eyes and referred the family to an ENT specialist. The ENT doctor found that the boy's eardrums were severely swollen and close to rupturing, describing his condition as critical.
The family contacted the school management to inquire about the child's alleged assault. However, CCTV footage from the day of the child's illness showed the boy being repeatedly tied to a chair and subjected to physical abuse, including being beaten, kicked, and having his ears pulled. The father accused the school management, owners, and principal of failing to ensure the safety of children and demanded action against those responsible.
Police have arrested the caretaker involved in the case, while the Department of Education (DoE) has ordered an independent inquiry into the allegations and the role of the school management. The FIR filed by the child's father states that the boy had been unable to sleep properly for several days, feared going to the toilet, and cried inconsolably at the thought of attending school. The police are examining CCTV footage and other evidence as part of their investigation.
