[Watch] Headmaster Transferred: Upset Students In Odisha’s Nabarangpur Break Down

Nabarangpur: A video of students in tears at a government-run school here has gone viral.

The students broke down not because they were scolded by their teacher or have fared poorly in exams. They were upset b


ecause the headmaster of their school has been transferred.

Demanding the withdrawal of the transfer order of their headmaster Dibakar Barik, the students broke down at a point at the school in Dabugan.

On Friday, no classes were held as students and parents protested outside the school gate, demanding the withdrawal of the transfer order.

“Besides being a nice human being, he has contributed immensely to raise the standard of education at our school. We will not allow the school to function if he is transferred,” a student told a news outlet.

“I have forwarded the memorandum to the District Education Officer. I also asked villagers to allow the school to function as it has reopened after two years,” Block Education Officer Ishwar Majhi was quoted as saying in a media report.
