On Saturday, July 30, the officials informed that ten staffers, including the headmaster of a government primary school in Uttar Pradesh's Hathras district, were suspended after a sleeping Class II student was left locked in the classroom, as stated in a report by PTI. 

As per the officials, six-year-old Prem Prakash had fallen asleep in the classroom of the school in the Nagla area on Wednesday, July 27. Not noticing the child, teachers and school staff locked the school and left. When he woke up at 5 pm and realised where he was, the boy started crying.
