Denying any communal angle associated with the act, the accused teacher, Tripta Tyagi, alleged that, as she was handicapped, she asked some students to slap him because the boy had not been doing his homework
After a video of a바카라 웹사이트teacher allegedly encouraging Hindu students to slap a Muslim student in UP's Muzaffarnagar went viral yesterday, the accused teacher, Tripta Tyagi, firmly denied바카라 웹사이트any communal angle in the incident. Instead she claimed that she asked some students to slap him because the boy had not been doing his homework.
Defending herself, Tyagi alleged that바카라 웹사이트the video was edited intentionally to바카라 웹사이트project the entire incident through an imaginary lens of communal hatred .
"The child's cousin was sitting in the class. The video was recorded by him which was later distorted," she said, referring to objevtionable바카라 웹사이트words she was heard using against a community in the video.
."There was pressure from the child's parents to be strict with him. I am handicapped, so I made some students slap him so that he would start doing his homework," she said.바카라 웹사이트
Ms Tyagi said it was a "minor issue" that had been blown out of proportion after the video clip went viral. "This wasn't my intention. I am accepting my mistake, but this was unnecessarily turned into a big issue", she said.

"The parents were initially not agreeing to give a complaint but this morning they gave a complaint to the local police station, and it has been registered. Legal action will be taken in the case," Mr Bangari said.
Mr Bangari said the child and his parents were counselled by the child welfare committee.
바카라 웹사이트boy's father, who yesterday refrained from pressing charges against the school said today, "My son is 7-years-old. This incident happened on August 24.

The video has triggered a massive outrage on social media. Politicians across the party lines also condemned the incident as a hate crime.
