These guidelines were released to ensure schools provide a safe and nurturing environment, free from physical and mental harm. They define corporal punishment in alignment with the Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009, covering physical punishment, mental harassment, and discrimination. The guidelines emphasize the physical and mental well-being of students and mandate the creation of "Corporal Punishment Monitoring Cells" (CPMC) at the school level to oversee implementation and address complaints.
