Surat (Gujarat) [India], October 14 (ANI): A school incharge teacher has been suspended by the Municipal Primary Education Committee for organising a get-together and serving non-vegetarian food inside the school premises, thereby disobeying the school guidelines in Gujarat.

Rajendra Kapadia, the chairman of the Municipal Primary Education Committee, stated that the school, originally an English-medium institution, had previously offered Telugu language classes, which were subsequently discontinued.

Prabhakar, the school incharge teacher, used to teach Telugu. After the discontinuation of the language as a subject, he was posted as the incharge of the English medium school.

Kapadia further mentioned that Prabhakar organised a get-together at School No. 342 for alumni who had passed 9-10 years ago, inside the school premises. During the party, he served chicken-based dishes to the guests.

The Chairman of the Municipal Primary Education Committee stated that he received information about the incident from the media. After contacting the school incharge and confirming the authenticity of the reports, he decided to take strict action against Prabhakar and suspended him.

Speaking on the incident, Kapadia stated, Yesterday I got to know through media that a get together was organised in School no. 342...Chicken was served in that...Today, we felt that some action should be taken against him (the teacher who organised the get-together) and ordered his suspension...The teacher name was Prabhakar.
