Harassment or bullying of any kind by any person is a social evil that needs to bid us adieu ASAP. While you might have heard stories of abuse and harassment by the other sex, friends, family, or colleagues, the rise in the number of abuse by school teachers is appalling.

Now, social media personality and comedian Aanchal Agrawal shared a string of tweets revealing several instances of abuse she faced from teachers in her school.

She opened up the conversation by sharing how in school, teachers often called her ‘gandi machli’ and shamed her in the class. Now that she has become famous, the same teachers direct message her to establish contact.

Sharing several episodes of abuse by teachers, she wrote:

She further penned that the trauma that came with the physical abuse she faced never subsided.

She concluded her lengthy and heartfelt thread by alleging that our education system deprives students of the space to grow.

Reading the numerous stories just makes me furious. You see, so many of them still remember the cruelty they faced as kids. It must have affected their mental health badly.

There is a thin line between keeping the kids disciplined and torturing them mentally and physically.
