The local Madal Virupakshappa had also arrived at the village and held meeting with the villagers and teacher, promising suitable action. However, the teacher in his magnanimity forgave the students and urged not to punish them or file any case as it would damage their future. He also reasoned that they were young and would learn their lesson.
The students who were moved by the teacher's response realized the mistake of their actions and sought forgiveness from the teacher by bowing to his feet and admitting their wrongdoing.
Some organisations and villagers counselled the offenders.
On the day the incident took place, teacher Prakash was teaching a lesson in class. Four to five students, who were not interested in his teaching, put a dustbin on his head and insulted him. This act was caught on mobile phone by other students and it went viral on social media.
