When Narina talked to some village chiefs and villagers, they expressed their anger and said that there is no misdeed that this headmaster is not doing in the school. Locals also complained that he is dishonoring this traditional institution.

In this regard, Upazila Assistant Secondary Education Officer Shafiul Islam said, “He cannot sell government books in any way. If he is really doing such work, legal action will be taken subject to investigation.
