The controversy over Sitapur Basic Shiksha Adhikari (BSA) Akhilesh Pratap Singh reached Lucknow after he was suspended for allegedly pressuring school principal Brijendra Kumar Verma to mark teacher Avantika Gupta present, even when she was absent. An audio tape revealed Singh repeatedly instructing Verma to overlook Gupta’s absenteeism, sparking outrage in the education department. Verma, refusing to comply, allegedly attacked Singh with a belt in his office, throwing papers and ripping documents, a scene captured on CCTV and widely circulated on social media. Police later arrested Verma. Avantika Gupta, whose prolonged absence from August 21 to September 20 was noted by students, has also been suspended and her salary withheld. The incident has raised serious questions about accountability at the district’s highest education level. A departmental inquiry into Singh’s conduct is underway, with senior officials closely monitoring the proceedings. Telangana Shocker: Teacher Drags Student, Brutally Thrashes Him in Gollagudem, Parents Demand Action After Disturbing Video Surfaces.
