Rupesh Kumar Thakur, secretary of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, in an order issued today, suspended the principal, Sakharam Gaonkar, pending inquiry against him.
The students had earlier complained that the teachers were harassing them on flimsy grounds.
The order mentions that Gaonkar will be posted in the headquarters till the inquiry against him gets over.
State Craftsman Training Minister Vishwajit Rane said that stringent action would be taken against all the officers, who are indulging in malpractices.
