00:59It's a rather disgusting incident that's come to the forefront.
01:02What more details are you learning about it?
01:14Anaga Kesaf, we will get that connection back with her.
01:17But right now viewers, these are the details.
01:18The teacher at this given point in question here, the person in fact in question here who was behind Arumugam,
01:25that is,
01:26who was behind this entire incident.
01:29That is the man that we are showing you on our screens.
01:31Cops have come out to in fact say that the cow dung was in fact mixed and that Arumugam was
01:37upset over wife's dismissal.
01:38With that, Anaga is back with us on the broadcast.
01:41Anaga, yes, we were just wanting to know some more details about this very incident.
01:48Well, in fact, Rhea, if you can hear me better now, this incident is reported from E-Road.
01:53It's a rather very disgusting incident that we are reporting like you highlighted.
01:57This incident has happened in Tamil Nadu's government school.
02:00What we're learning is that the accused Arumugam, he has, he's the one behind this incident.
02:05He has pressurized one schoolgirl to mix cow dung powder with sambar that is prepared as part of the free
02:12breakfast game that's served for students.
02:15So he has pressurized a schoolgirl who's studying in that gunman school to go ahead and mix cow dung powder
02:21along with sambar.
02:22And the reason why he has done is because earlier his wife was suspended from the gunman school and he
02:28wanted to avenge the dismissal of his wife from her duties.
02:31And therefore, he has taken this route.
02:34And what we're learning, thankfully, is that the sambar powder, the cow dung powder was not mixed with the portion
02:41that was meant for students.
02:42It was only at the texture sample that teachers consume every day before serving students.
02:47So it is in this particular portion that's meant for students that the cow dung powder was mixed.
02:52In fact, the taste felt rather bitter.
02:56And when the teachers inquired about this matter, they felt that it was because of excess turmeric in sambar while
03:02it was bitter.
03:03But then when they found out that one of the schoolgirls, she had her hands yellow,
03:08they suspected that this schoolgirl could have been behind adding more turmeric and then they summoned her parents.
03:13And when the schoolgirl found out that this matter was rather getting serious,
03:17that's when she went and confessed to the headmaster that there was somebody behind this,
03:22that a man named Armugam has pressurized her into mixing cow dung powder with sambar's portion that was meant for
03:28students.
03:29And that's how the sequence of events transpired.
03:31The accused Armugam has been arrested.
03:33This incident happened on August 29th.
03:36Complaint was filed on September 1th and he was subsequently arrested on September 2nd.
