Telangana teacher suspended for unorthodox science demonstration

A government school teacher in Telangana's Vikarabad district has been suspended after she brought a cow's brain to biology class as a stand-in for a human specimen.
Kasimbi, who teaches at Zilla Parishad High School for Girls, even shared photos of the lesson in the school's WhatsApp group.
The move upset some students and sparked protests from local groups over religious sensitivities.

TL;DR

Authorities look into what happened

After the incident, police stepped in to calm protests outside the school and promised action.
Education officials spoke with students and staff before suspending Bi while they investigate further.
For now, she remains off duty as authorities look into what happened and how such situations can be handled better going forward.
