Sex scanal: headmaster suspended, teacher sacked
The victims were students of class VII and VIII of Sevashram School
The scandal came to light due to a lady assistant teacher of the schoolShow cause notice issued to Welfare Extension Officer
BERHAMPUR: Four girls of a residential Sevashram School at Badaambada village in Nabarangpur district of south Orissa were allegedly sexually exploited on the campus by their teachers.
According to sources one of the victims was found to be pregnant during medical tests done at Nabarangpur district hospital on Wednesday. The victims were students of Class VII and Class VIII. The authorities were dumb found when fingers were pointed at two teachers including the headmaster and the husband of a cook posted in the school. The headmaster of the school, Pradipta Sahu, a contractual teacher Iswar Bhatra and Padman Bhatra, the husband of the cook of the school have been taken into custody by the police for questioning. The Nabarangpur district Collector Rupa Mishra has suspended the headmaster and removed the contractual teacher and the cook from the school. She has also issued show cause notice to the Welfare Extension Officer (WEO) of Kosagumuda block of the district.
The State Mass Education Department and the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe Development Department have asked the Collector to submit report about this grave incident.
This sex scandal came to the fore due to a lady assistant teacher of the school, Kanchan Prabha Nayak, who dared to bring it to the notice of administrative officials few days back. The District Welfare Officer (DWO) Mukund Nihal was assigned to investigate into the allegations.
The DWO had reached the Sevashram school with an Auxiliary Nurse and Midwife (ANM) on Tuesday evening to enquire into the allegations. The initial investigation hinted at sexual exploitation of four girls. So, these girls were brought to the district headquarter hospital at Nabarangpur town for further medical investigation. The medical investigation confirmed their sexual exploitation and one of them was found to be pregnant.
The DWO said a medical team would be sent to the school for check up of other girls of the school. In place of the suspended headmaster and the removed contractual teacher, arrangements are being made to post new teachers to the school.
At present there are only two teachers in this school. A new cook is also to be appointed. But the parents of the girls studying in this school are now a worried lot. Several of them rushed to the school on Wednesday to collect their wards.
They alleged that this shameful incident has been a major set back for education of girls in this tribal dominated remote district.

‘Professors contacted to support teaching-learning process'
KORAPUT: Appointment of the first registrar and finance officer of Central University of Orissa at Koraput has been granted by the President. They would join the university shortly, Surabhi Banerjee ,Vice-Chancellor of the university, said in a press meet here. While it would take some more months to get regular teaching faculty for the university, eminent professors and other experts in their subjects were contacted to support the teaching-learning process in the university by taking classes as visiting faculty on the campus. In addition to this there were a good number of MOU to be signed in the next few months by the university with institutions of repute like M.S. Swaminathan Research Centre, Jamia Hamdard University and British Council for developing the scope and opportunities for integral development of students, she added.
While the university had plans to shift the campus from the existing COATS premises to the newly acquired building of Central Silk Board at Landiguda near here, she expressed gratitude to the people and institutions for providing the required infrastructure for launching the classes of the university in its formative stage. The university wishes to clear all the pending payments in connection with the rent of the building on COATS premises before the shifting takes place. But lack of clarity on the ownership of the building was causing problem for the release of the funds from the university accounts . Intervention of Rajesh Pravakar Patil, district Collector was sought in this regard and on the expenditure incurred by the district administration for organising the inaugural function of the university last year , she said .
While briefing the media on the plans and proposals of the university, she said that nine out of 39 Central universities in the country were selected to have medical colleges and hospitals. Construction work for the university had begun at Sunabeda and discussions were held with chief officers of HAL, NAD, CPWD and the district administration for making plans for construction work in addition to laying proper road links to the prime site in between HAL and NAD .
The executive council at a recent meeting in New Delhi had approved the proposal to provide free education in the university to economically backward students under its community welfare initiatives from next academic session, she added.
