A section of plus-two students of Corporation Higher Secondary School in the city today boycotted classes seeking action against a teacher after she reportedly advised a boy not to mingle with a scheduled caste student, police today said.
Police said the student allegedly misbehaved with teachers and one of them advised a boy in her class not to talk to him by naming his caste.
The boy did not talk to him for a couple of days and then informed his friends following which parents of the student came to the school and lodged a complaint.
