Delhi CM orders sealing of playschool after student sexually assaulted, tied to chair
On August 16, the parents of a three-year-old boy noticed bruises on his face and arms at his playschool in Northeast Delhi. Two days later, he started vomiting and was taken to an ENT specialist who found swollen eyes and damaged eardrums. The child's father claims that when he and his wife approached the school authorities about the injuries, they were initially denied and then reluctantly agreed to share CCTV footage.
According to the father, on August 18, the child was tied to a chair for three hours and then beaten up by an attendant. On August 17, he was slapped by a teacher. The father obtained a medico-legal certificate for his child and registered an FIR on August 27. The Chief Minister's office announced that the school would be sealed on the directions of the Chief Minister.
