The students demanded a new in-charge to be sent to the school, which comes under the social welfare department and is run by a Godda-based NGO.
Dumka Sub-Divisional Magistrate Rakesh Kumar said a proper investigation will take place based on the complaints put forth by the students.
Meanwhile, the in-charge Shivnandan Mahto has denied the allegations.
“I just want to keep the students tight. I don’t know if anyone else in the school mistreats the students. But, I have never done this,” he said.
