A teacher at a government school in Delhi has been accused of making racial slurs by four of the pupils there. The pupils claimed that their teacher had questioned them over the decision of their families not to move to Pakistan during the Partition.
According to the accusations made by the families of the pupils, the Delhi Police have filed a case against Hema Gulati, a teacher at the Sarvodaya Bal Vidyalaya, and are currently looking into the situation.
According to the complaint, which was submitted on Friday, Hema Gulati made the offensive remarks on Wednesday about the Quran and the Kaaba, which is Islam’s holiest shrine and is located in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
You didn’t visit Pakistan during Partition, I noticed. You remained in India. The complaint described the teacher as adding, “You have made no contribution to the liberation of India.

This occurs in the midst of controversy over a viral video from Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, in which pupils are seen slapping a Muslim classmate on the teacher’s orders. In the footage from Muzaffarnagar, the instructor, Tripta Tyagi, is heard making racial slurs.
In response to complaints made by the families of the Class 9 children, Delhi Police have opened an investigation into Hema Gulati, a teacher at the Government Sarvodaya Bal Vidyalaya in Gandhi Nagar. Police said that they are looking into the claims.
Hema Gulati made the anti-communal comments on Wednesday, according to a student’s report. According to the allegation, she made disparaging statements against the Quran and the Kaaba, the Mecca-area’s holy stone structure. “You did not travel to Pakistan during Partition. You remained in India. The teacher is described in the complaint as adding, “You have made no contribution to the liberation of India. It can be seen from a copy of the complaint that it was submitted on Friday night.
The teacher should be fired, according to the students’ families, who claimed the teacher’s comments could cause strife at school.
ANI quoted a mother having two school-age children as saying, “If this teacher gets away with it, others will be inspired. They should be told to stick to teaching and to avoid speaking on topics they don’t understand. A teacher who fosters division among the students is useless. We urge that the teacher be dismissed from the institution; she should not work in any educational setting.
The teacher has come under fire from Anil Kumar Bajpai, a local MLA and leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). “This is completely incorrect. A teacher’s duty is to provide the kids with a quality education. No insulting remarks should be made by the teacher about any place of worship or religion. According to news source PTI, he stated that such individuals “should be arrested.”
The teacher in Delhi is facing accusations after Tripta Tyagi was criticised for subjecting a Muslim pupil to the unpleasant experience of receiving slaps from his peers. The teacher, 60, acknowledged that she “made a mistake” but insisted that she did not act with ulterior motives. The boy’s family has called for harsh punishment and a police case has been opened against her. The youngster, who was traumatised by his ordeal, has since been transferred to a different school.
