Mangalore Today News Network

Byndoor, Nov 14, 2026: The education department has suspended the headmaster of a school in Byndoor following an investigation that reportedly uncovered financial and administrative irregularities.

The action follows a complaint, after which the Deputy Director’s office directed the Byndoor Block Education Officer (BEO) to investigate and submit a report.

The inquiry reportedly found lapses in cashbook maintenance, failure to record School Development and Monitoring Committee (SDMC) resolutions related to recruitment and procurement, and alleged misuse of departmental grants in violation of purchase regulations.

Citing prima facie violations of the Karnataka Financial Code and Karnataka Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, the department ordered the headmaster’s immediate suspension pending a departmental inquiry.

He will be entitled to subsistence allowance during the suspension period as per applicable rules.
