Viral Video: A shocking video has surfaced, shared by the National Council for Men Affairs (NCMIndia), showing an elderly man being attacked by his daughter-in-law daily. This is Sarita Shrivastav, a teacher at R.S Convent Sainik School, Taktakpur, Varanasi. As this Viral Video reveals, Shrivastav physically assaults her elderly father-in-law, thus casting dire doubts over her as a mother and as a mentor.
Teacher’s Violence Caught in Viral Video Raises Eyebrows
In the Viral Video that emerged and caused waves of outrage across social media, such aggressive behavior by Shrivastav in is shocking because she is a teacher. Critics have begun to question what kind of moral and ethical standards she exudes, thus bringing controversy about the nature of education she inculcates in her students. How would she create a positive learning atmosphere when she could go about to exhibit such violent behavior at home?
National Council for Men Affairs (NCMIndia) posted on X (formally twitter) saying that this is unacceptable. Our Team in Varanasi will meet the man and ensure that he is safe and fine. Appeals to local authorities, including the @Varanasi_DM Varanasi District Magistrate to take prompt action on this incident. Council stresses intervention for the elderly man and how alarming Shrivastav’s behavior is.
The Broader Impact of Educator’s Violence
The bigger issue lies in its social implications outside the education system, and the social accountability it has brought on the institution. Anyone entrusted to shape young minds has somehow questioned the integrity of her position and the values she must represent under any such capacity. The community awaits a response from local authority and educational institutions for such behavior to be condemned and dealt with appropriately.
Such an incidence of domestic violence, in the form of the viral video showing Sarita Shrivastav committing daily assaults on her elderly father-in-law, is one such example. Such acts of aggression are a blatant violation of the most basic tenets of respect and compassion but also reflect a disturbing normalization of violence within the household. Such a scenario raises many critical questions regarding violence in the family as well as in the larger community.
