USTM has offered him a job and the opportunity to continue his education...
Mirzapur: A video of a school principal in Uttar Pradesh’s Mirzapur has gone viral showing the educationist holding the foot of a Class 2 boy and dangling him from the top of the school building. The horrifying incident came to light after the video of the incident went viral on social media.
The teacher - Manoj Vishwakarma - also threatened the young boy - Sonu Yadav, understandably crying with fear - telling him he would drop him unless he apologised for biting another student while students of several classes were playing outside during the lunch break on Thursday.

Enraged, the school principal then took the Class 2 student to the terrace and took hold of his foot and threatened him that he will drop him down if he didn’t apologized to the other student.
The Class 2 boy was released only after the entire school gathered after hearing the screams of the student. The principal was then forced to let the boy down.
“What he did was wrong. But what he did was out of love and didn’t mean harm to him”, said the boy’s father to the media.
The principal identified as Manoj Vishwakarma, has been arrested and charged under sections of the Juvenile Justice Act.
"Sonu is very mischievous... he bites children, he also bites teachers. His father asked us to correct him. So, we tried to scare him. He was hung upside down from the upper floor for fear," said the principal as a justification to his act.
