KVS suspends principal accused of sexual abuse
The Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) on Thursday suspended Principal of Bengaluru's Hebbal Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV) Kumar Thakur, who was allegedly involved in sexual abuse of a female student.
An enquiry committee constituted by the Deputy Commissioner of KVS Regional Office in Bangalore suspended Thakur with immediate effect.
The decision was based on a preliminary enquiry report by the committee.
However, as per the provisions of Kendriya Vidyalaya Education Code, a summary enquiry will be conducted in the future.
In order to ensure free and fair inquiry, the KVS had earlier transferred the accused to KV Karwar on administrative grounds.
