Former Kerala minister KT Jaleel denied humiliating students at a Palakkad felicitation event after the State Child Rights Commission registered a case based on TV visuals. He said he interacted with students "like a teacher," defended pulling a student's ear as a joke, and said he would apologise if anyone felt offended.
Thiruvananthapuram: Former Kerala Minister K T Jaleel on Tuesday said that he did not hurt or humiliate any student at a recent felicitation function in Palakkad and claimed that he only interacted with them like a teacher would.
Jaleel's clarification comes in the wake of a case being registered against him by the state child rights commission for allegedly publicly humiliating students through his remarks during the event.
According to a statement issued by the State Commission for Protection of Child Rights, the action was initiated based on visuals aired by television channels.
In the visuals, Jaleel was seen asking students who had secured A-plus grades in the Class 10 examination whether they knew the alphabet during his address.
