A very well known story in Sainik School Purulia, those days (Late 60s). Boys used to run away from school to watch movies in the theatres of Purulia town. On one such venture, while watching a movie in the darkness of the hall, one of the students asked for a lighter from the person sitting next to him. It turned out that he was a Teacher! And the teacher told the boy to report in front of the Principal's office! For obvious reasons we are withholding the names! |
