Ousted vice-principal files case against principal Sheth, 19 others

An ongoing fight between the principal and ousted vice-principal of SP College has become a tit-for-tat affair. Subhash Khandagale, former vice-principal, filed a police complaint against the principal and 19 other college staffers, including senior professors under the Atrocities Act.

In his complaint at the Vishrambaug police station, Khandagale, who belongs to the scheduled caste category, said the accused harassed him by passing casteist comments and abusing him for belonging to a backward caste. He also lodged a complaint with the Scheduled Caste Commission, alleging atrocity and misbehaviour by Principal Dilip Sheth and the others.
