Rajasthan Man Dies After Setting Himself On Fire In A Government School

A 55-year-old clerk died after setting himself on fire in a government school in Rajasthan's Nagaur district, police said on Friday claiming he took the step over alleged harassment by the principal and other staff members.

The clerk, Ramsukh Meghwal, immolated himself in the school in Pilwa area on Thursday. He succumbed to the burns on Friday, they said.

Pilwa Station House Officer (SHO) Surajmal Chaudhary said the clerk, who suffered 80 per cent burns, was admitted to JLN Hospital in Ajmer on Thursday.

He said Meghwal had set himself on fire by pouring petrol over himself on the school's premises. The clerk had accused the school's principal, Seema Chandel, and other staff members of harassing him.

Deputy Superintendent of Police (Makrana) Raviraj Singh said that after the post-mortem the body was handed over to the relatives for the last rites.

He said a case has been registered against the principal and others for allegedly harassing the clerk.

The DSP said the Education Department has suspended Principal Seema Chandel and another teacher.

He said the relatives agreed to take the body after assurance of fair investigation in the matter, government job to the dependent and sending the proposal to the state government for proper action on the demands for compensation.
