The Chief Education Officer of Coimbatore district took the step after staff members attached to the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) submitted their inqiry report after meeting the other teachers, students, girls who dropped out of the school and their parents. Ravichandran’s mischiefs came to light a few weeks ago after the school’s strength from Class 6 to 10 suddenly dropped to a low 47.
