Parents of a five-year-old girl have alleged that the officials at Bal Bhavan School in Mayur Vihar locked her in a room for four hours for not paying the fees on time.
"Have directed to conduct an enquiry into torture of a five-year-old girl in Bal Bhavan School in Mayur Vihar. It has been alleged that she was made to sit in a separate room for whole day for non payment of fees on time," Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said in a series of tweets.
Meanwhile, the school authorities could not be reached for comments on the issue.
Officials at the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) said they are verifying the claims made by girl's parents and notice will be issued to the school if the complaint is found valid.
