										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>According to police, the principal of a school in Uttar Pradesh&#8217;s Mirzapur district was sentenced to prison after dangling a five-year-old pupil upside down from the first floor of the building as a punishment for eating gol gappas.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>On Thursday, a video of the event went viral on social media, showing other students at Sadbhavna Shikshan Sansthan Junior High School staring in disbelief as headmaster Manoj Vishwakarma dangled the child upside down.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The child was punished, according to the police, because he ate gol gappas outside the school without alerting the teacher. Vishwakarma grabbed the minor pupil by the ankles and turned him upside down as soon as he returned to school.</p>
