High Court Advocate and former Chairperson of Maharashtra State Women?s Commission, Nirmala Samant condemned the incident in Digri, asserting that it was a shocking incident.

The incident took place in Kasturba Gandhi Girls Residential School which had led to protests by the families of the students.

?However the warden has given her explanation and denied the incident. Since the girls have complained in majority, things have to be taken seriously and a proper investigation has to be done,? Samant added.
