A video of a Delhi teacher brutally beating a student went viral. Later, the teacher and student described it as old-fashioned punishment acting. People are not believing this clarification and are demanding action.
A video of a tuition center in Delhi is spreading like wildfire on social media. In this video, a teacher is seen beating his student very brutally. It is being told that this incident took place at a coaching center named ‘Sumit Academy’ in Kalkaji, Delhi. In the video, a teacher named Sumit Sehgal is beating and abusing a student by making him sit on the ground.
As soon as this video went viral, people on social media became angry against the teacher and started criticizing him fiercely. Seeing the matter escalating, both the teacher and the student who was beaten came forward together and told a new story. He says that this video was just an acting. They were trying to show how teachers used to punish children in olden times.
The student said, “Sumit sir is a very nice person. We were just acting out the behavior of old school teachers. This is a fake video, no one should believe it.” Meanwhile, teacher Sumit Sehgal says, “The child is not injured. I cannot harm my students. They all study here happily.” Surprisingly, the child’s father is also seen supporting the teacher in the video.

However, the clarification given by these three is not agreeing with anyone on social media. People say that perhaps the student and his family were forced to make such a statement by threatening or paying them. Many people are also raising the question that even if this was acting, wouldn’t doing this in front of other students have a bad effect on their minds? After watching the video, many people have tagged Delhi Police and demanded action against the teacher.
