A school teacher in India has been accused of creating Instagram reels during class and then blocking students who criticized her on the platform. The incident has sparked outrage among parents and students, who are calling for action against the teacher.
The teacher, who has not been identified, is said to have been making reels during her lessons for some time now. However, students only recently began to speak out about the issue after the teacher started blocking them on Instagram for criticizing her videos.
One student, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the teacher would often make reels about her personal life, including videos of herself dancing and singing. The student said that the teacher would then expect students to like and share her videos, and would even threaten to give them bad grades if they did not.
"She would say things like, 'If you don't like my reels, you won't get good marks in my class,'" the student said. "It was really unfair."
The student said that they and their classmates eventually decided to speak out about the issue because they were tired of being bullied by the teacher. They said that they hoped that by going public, they could force the school to take action against the teacher.
The school has not yet commented on the allegations. However, parents and students are calling for the teacher to be fired. They say that her behavior is unacceptable and that she is creating a hostile learning environment for students.
This incident is a reminder of the importance of social media boundaries between teachers and students. It is important for teachers to remember that they are in a position of power, and that they should not use their social media accounts to bully or harass students.
If you are a student who is being harassed by a teacher, you should report the incident to your school principal or another trusted adult. You can also contact your local child protection agency for help.
