Sir/Madam,
 
         The complaint/intimation dated 28/09/2022, was placed before the Commission on 22/11/2022. Upon perusing the same, the Commission directed as follows:
 

The instant complaint is regarding allegation of named student/victim, who  was a Dalit, was beaten to death by his school teacher.  It is alleged that  the teacher had taken the test of the students  in the class and  the victim had blackened two boxes instead of one in the answer sheet and wrongly spelled name of the subject . Angered by this, the teacher bashed him with sticks, kicks and punches so much that victim got  fainted and ultimately died on the 18th day during treatment. Hence, seeking intervention of the Commission in the matter.

The Commission took cognizance on 30/09/2022 and directed its Registry to transmit a copy of the complaint to the District Magistrate, Auria, Uttar Pradesh and the Superintendent of Police, Auria, Uttar Pradesh calling for an action taken report within four weeks. The Commission also sought to obtain the date of cognizance if any, taken in the matter by the Uttar Pradesh State Human Rights Commission.

The Commission directs its registry to retransmit the copy of the complaint and the last direction of the Commission to the District Magistrate, Auria, Uttar Pradesh and Superintendent of Police, Auria, Uttar Pradesh for submission of the requisite report within four weeks failing which the Commission shall  be constrained to invoke its coercive power u/s 13 of the PHR Act,1993 calling for the personal appearance of the authority concerned before the Commission.
