Ghaziabad: A primary school teacher was Tuesday suspended after an inquiry found him guilty of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl in Hussainpur village in the district, officials said.

Basic Shiksha Adhkari (BSA) suspended Raju, the teacher, after the inquiry conducted by Additional BSA Yogesh Sharma found him guilty of sexually assaulting the girl, a student of class V.

Sharma submitted the report to BSA two days back.
The incident took place on March 16 when the teacher allegedly tried to outrage the modesty of the minor after the school was over.

The girl was saved by passersby after she raised an alarm. She informed her parents about the incident who later reported the matter to BSA.
The teacher was suspended and further action will be initiated by the Uttar Pradesh government as the report was sent to the state education department.
