Three students of the English medium Nazipur S S Point Residential School yesterday lodged a complaint with the Kaliachak police station against the principal, Najib Ali, police sources said today.
The complaint was lodged after one of the girls told her family that the principal allegedly behaved indecently, used invectives, entered their mosquito curtains at night and gave them alcohol to drink, the sources said.
Social Welfare Minister Sabitri Mitra has asked the Malda district magistrate and the superintendent of police to inquire into the complaints.
Mitra said that such behaviour as reported could not be tolerated irrespective of party affiliation.
No arrest was reported.
