She is also suffering from paraplegia.<br /><br />The incident occurred around 2:30 pm. A Class VI student, who did not do well in the examination, had tampered with her mark sheet.

She was the class teacher for standard VIII, said the police.<br /><br />“There is nothing fishy about the incident. Our officers went to the school and hospital and inquired about the incident. Barnali and her husband were not willing to lodge a complaint and said it was purely an accident,” Bangalore Rural District Superintendent of Police, Ramesh, told Deccan Herald.<br /><br />The girl’s mother is said to be a doctor in a reputed corporate hospital in the City.<br />Security guards immediately rushed to Barnali’s rescue.
