NEW DELHI: The
principal of Rajendra Prasad Sarvodaya School on President's estate has been
suspended and a guest
teacher dismissed after education minister Manish Sisodia discovered a number of
irregularities on a surprise visit on Wednesday.
The anti corruption branch (ACB) has filed an FIR.
"There are students of food processing at this school but there's no laboratory. No practicals are conducted either.
But items including chicken, mutton, olive-oil and sugar have been purchased. The irregularities are evident from the bills," says a statement from the minister's office.
"Materials have been purchased from places like Nand Nagri, Trilokpuri, Jahangirpuri and elsewhere. The samosas for the President's estate school are purchased from Trilokpuri," says Sisodia. The statement adds that the minister also discovered a 'blank bill book' in principal Vishan Lal's cupboard.
