Claim: Geetanjali Barua, the principal of Azimpur Govt. Girls School & College was tied to a tree and was forced to resign in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Fact-check: The woman Tied to a Tree in this Photo Is Not Principal Geetanjali Barua - FACTLY
Verdict: geetanjali barua, the principal of azimpur govt. girls school & college resigned following student agitation over allegations of corruption, question paper leaks, and mistreatment of students. however, the woman tied to the tree in the viral photo is neither principal geetanjali barua nor any of the teachers at the institute. she claimed to be an alumna of the college, but this has been denied by the college management. the protesting students tied her to a tree for obstructing them, but she was later rescued by security forces. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
