'I said Radhe Radhe, but she shouted at me': Chhattisgarh school principal held for assaulting nursery student; taped her mouth, hit with stick
The girl told police that she had greeted the principal, Ila Evan Colvin, saying "Radhe Radhe" but in response, the latter had allegedly shouted at her, stuck tape over her mouth, and repeatedly struck her palms with a stick.
The assault occurred on July 30 at Bagdumar village in Nandini area.
Outraged Bajrang Dal activists and villagers protested outside the police station, demanding stringent action against the accused and the school management.
Based on a complaint filed by the child's father, cops arrested Colvin and booked her under BNS Sections 115(2) and 299 and Section 75 of the Juvenile Justice Act, for inflicting physical and mental cruelty on a minor and hurting religious sentiments. She was remanded in judicial custody. CSP Harish Patil said further investigation was underway.

‘Curb disabled parking misuse at Vasco'
Vasco: The Mormugao Municipal Council (MMC) has requested the Vasco traffic cell to take action against the misuse of disabled parking spaces. 'MMC has made provision for disabled parking spaces, which will begin soon at four locations near the municipal building,' said MMC chairperson Girish Borkar. Borkar was commenting on a private vehicle illegally occupying a disabled parking spot near Vasco court. He said the south side of the municipal building has parking spaces for people with physical disabilities. 'Vasco traffic cell should take care of the parking spaces. Justice should be served to the Velsao resident frustrated by unauthorised parking in front of the Vasco court. Disabled persons have the right to a dedicated parking space and therefore the traffic cell should come out with a strategic plan for them,' said Borkar. He said the traffic cell should strictly curb unauthorised parking to improve discipline among motorists. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
