    I find it very bad to suspend a teacher because he was drinking?in front of students ,without knowing what exactly he drank ,water ,or alcohol?Because he was taking his meals from a packet,I am sure he must have drank out of a bottle.First of all make sure it was alcohol,second give him a warning to avoid such action.and again if he had broken rules,mishandled students in his drunken state.In his free time if he drinks ,during his meals is not a criminal act.so much understand one should have.If he files a case against this in court,he may win.These days difficult to have a joband a good teacher too.
