Bodeli (Guj):
A primary school teacher was caught by villagers dozing off allegedly in a drunken state in a classroom of a government primary school at Kath Mandav village in Gujarat’s Chhota Udepur district.
An inquiry was instituted against teacher Raojibhai Vasava after villagers recorded a video and complained to authorities, said District Primary Education Officer P D Baraiya.
Baraiya said a report has been sought from taluka education officials on the incident.
Villagers had earlier too complained that Vasava often reached school drunk.
Gujarat, incidentally, is a dry state with jail provisions of up to 10 years for manufacturing, purchase, sale and transportation of liquor.
