It may be noted that Cheil Singh, 40, owns a private school and is also a teacher, while 9-year-old Indrakumar Meghwal was a third-grade student. The child's family claims that after the incident, they are being pressured by prominent figures and the community to compromise on the matter and not approach the police.
According to the child's relative, the local people pressured us not to file a case after the meeting in the school, while the teacher also offered to pay two and a half lakh rupees in two installments in return for keeping his mouth shut. He said that after the incident, when he went to school, the teacher accepted that he had made a mistake.
According to the FIR, after the child drank water, the upper caste teacher abused him mercilessly, resulting in severe internal injuries to the child's right ear and eye. Local medical officials say the cause of death will be known only after the post-mortem report.
According to the police, after several days of talks and sit-ins, the last rites of the child have been paid under an agreement.
