LATUR: A case was filed in Latur in Maharashtra on Tuesday against the management of a school for reportedly conducting Class 10 classes despite orders to remain shut during the coronavirus-induced lockdown, district officials said.
A video of classes in the school in Udgir, which has reported several COVID-19 cases, had gone viral on Monday.
A case has been registered with Udgir Rural police against headmaster, president and secretary of Aksharnandan High School under sections of IPC and Epidemic Diseases Act, an official said.
The probe was ordered by Collector G Sreekanth and carried out by deputy tehsildar GL Kharat and Mandal officer Shankar Jadhav, the official added.
For students of Class 9 and Class 10, the online classes will begin from July 1. Schools located in non-red zone areas and junior college for Class 12 will start the classes in digital mode.
