Sexually Harassed By Principal, Students Write Letter In Blood To UP CM Yogi Adityanath For Action

New Delhi/Ghaziabad: A couple of school students have written a letter in blood to UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath alleging that their principal sexually harassed them. According to the contents of the letter, the principal, Dr Rajeev Pandey, is alleged to have called female students, all in the age group of 12 and 25,  to his office on different pretexts and touched them inappropriately. The girls, between the ages of 12 and 15, say they were too scared to speak up about the abuse at first, but eventually told their parents They have demanded stringent action against the principal, NDTV reported.

Writing the letter was a last resort as the girls and their parents ended up being detained at the police station for several hours after they confronted the principal. After the girls told their family members about the principal’s acts, they went to the school and had a face-off with Pandy where the latter verbally abused the students and their families. The group then beat up the principal, injuring him.

The school principal filed a counter-complaint against the students’ parents, alleging that they trespassed on school property and assaulted him. The police have registered cases against both parties. “We were forced to sit at the police station for four hours,” the bloodstained letter claims. “School authorities have ordered us to not attend classes anymore.”

The letter also claims that the students had been told by their parents that the principal was a member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and that is why no action was initiated against him. Pandey was eventually arrested following his clash with the parents at the school, the report said.
