School principal removed forcibly from her office in UP, video goes viral

A school principal in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj was forcibly removed from her office. Video of the incident is going viral on the internet. In the video, a group of school staff, led by the institution's chairman, enters the principal's office. They demand her to vacate the chair immediately.

The principal resists, leading to a forceful removal in which her phone is also taken away by force. Subsequently, the newly appointed principal is seated in her place, greeted with applause from those present. The video is causing a massive uproar.

The dramatic visuals were recorded at Prayagraj's Bishop Johnson Girls School. An alleged multi-crore scam linked to an exam paper leak is at the heart of this controversy.

According to Bishop Maurice Edgar Dan, Shirley Massey was appointed as the new principal following Ms Parul Solomon's termination. However, upon Ms Massey's arrival, Ms Solomon allegedly locked herself in the principal's office.

When the door was forcibly opened, some teachers removed Ms Solomon from her chair. Bishop Dan has claimed that Ms Solomon has registered a case against the group for sexual abuse.

However, he contends that despite Ms Solomon's claims, video and CCTV footage show no physical contact. Parul's name reportedly surfaced in the multi-crore scam linked to the February 11 UPPSC Review Officer-Assistant Review Officer (RO-ARO) paper leak.
