However, in many cases, teachers who are mostly non-native English speakers made mistakes when writing or speaking English. Mathematics, English, agriculture, science, social skills, life skills, and the arts are among the other subjects taught. According to her 2019 report card, the student ranked seventh in her class. Anant Bhan, a Twitter user, shared the report card with the caption “Oh, Lord, via FB.”
A video recently went viral online that purportedly showed a district collector in India going to meet his former school teacher to seek her blessings, and he asked her to beat him with a cane for old times’ sake. However, it sparked a debate among netizens about whether it was the right approach and should be celebrated.
