Govt orders probe into locking of a girl by school over fees

The Delhi government on Friday ordered the Directorate of Education to investigate a complaint against a private school for allegedly torturing a girl for not paying the fees on time. 

Parents of a five-year-old girl have alleged that the officials at Bal Bhavan School in Mayur Vihar locked her in a room for four hours for not paying the fees on time.

“Have directed to conduct an enquiry into torture of a five-year-old girl in Bal Bhavan School in Mayur Vihar. It has been alleged that she was made to sit in a separate room for whole day for non payment of fees on time,” Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said in a series of tweets.
