|November 23, 2025

Justice Kaushik Chanda passed the order on Friday, but the copy of the order in the matter was uploaded on Saturday morning.
A video had gone viral earlier this month where Jalpaiguri Municipality chairman, Saikat Chatterjee, was seen forcing the woman teacher attached to Suniti Bala Sadar Girls High School in Jalpaiguri district to perform sit-ups, holding her ears inside the school premises.

Two centuries on, an Indian school-leaver can recite Newton's three laws and the Krebs cycle, but has rarely been asked, even in passing, to open the Aryabhatiya, the Caraka Samhita or the Arthasastra
