Drunken Dance Leads to Teacher's Suspension in Nanded

A teacher from a Zilla Parishad school in Nanded, Anant Ramcharan Varma, was suspended after a video showed him dancing inebriated in a classroom. Following an inquiry by the education department, he was found guilty of violating Maharashtra Zilla Parishad District Services (Conduct) Rules and was suspended by the Nanded ZP chief executive officer.

A school teacher from Zilla Parishad in Nanded was suspended after being caught inebriated and dancing inside a classroom, according to officials.

The action came after a video of Anant Ramcharan Varma, a teacher at the ZP primary school in Shekapur, went viral on December 5, prompting the education department to initiate an inquiry.

The Block Education Officer's report concluded Varma was under the influence, leading to his suspension by Nanded ZP's Chief Executive Officer Meghna Kawli for violating disciplinary rules and the 1967 Maharashtra Zilla Parishad District Services (Conduct) Rules.
