The meat was found stored in polythene bags inside a classroom at Utkramit Urdu Middle School in Ramudih village. The discovery sparked protests from parents and local residents, who expressed concerns over religious sensitivity and demanded strict action.
The district administration suspended five staff members, including the in-charge headmaster, while police detained them for questioning. Officials said an investigation is underway to determine how the meat was brought onto the school premises and whether it was intended for the mid-day meal.
