The Kumbakonam East Police have arrested a school teacher under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act based on complaints from girl students studying in an aided school.
Inquiries reveled that the 57-year-old teacher taking classes to the higher secondary level students has the track record of submitting letters to the school authorities seeking clemency as and when such charges of sexual harassment by him on girl students surfaced since 2004.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
