Kolkata, Feb 18 (IBNS): A privately-run school was allegedly destroyed by a local promoter and his men in the wee hours of Saturday at Doshdron area under the Baguiati police Station area in Kolkata.

According to reports, workers of the local promoter, Mijanur Rehman, bought the property from the school's owner and started dismantling the school building.

When the head-teacher of the school, Kaushik Bhattacharya, tried to prevent them from dismantling the building that was undertaken  without any notice, he was allegedly beaten up by the promoter's men.

Protesting the incident, guardians of the school's students reportedly blocked Rajarhat Road nearby, disrupting traffic for hours.

Later a heavy police force rushed to the spot and brought the situation under control.
