To make the education system student-friendly, the National Commission for Protection of Child rights (NCPCR) released a set of guidelines to eliminate corporal punishment.The ‘Guidelines for eliminating corporal punishment in schools’ was formulated after a study conducted by the organization in 2009-10.The Ministry of Human resource Development has been given a copy of the recommendations and inform the state governments to formulate rules for incorporation into their educational system.The NCPCR guidelines also suggest that each school should set up a Corporal Punishment Monitoring Cell (CPMC) to hear grievances related to corporal punishment as well as instances of sexual harassment. The guidelines state that the CPMC can be a sub-committee under the school management committee which addresses these issues.
We punish our children and so do teachers. But there is a line between discipline and torture...
