The accused is Basavraj H Kandari hailing from Gadag. The police arrested him after several girl students, their parents, alumni of the school and leaders of various social organisations demanded action against him.
It is learnt that Basavraj used to pass vulgar comments on girls and touch their body inappropriately in the school.
Earlier, the same teacher had been suspended for indecent behaviour with girl students at the Gottempadi School in Mangaluru, the sources said.
Mangaluru, Dec 15: Air India Express has announced that it will resume direct flight services between Mangaluru and Muscat from March 2026, restoring an important international air link for passengers from the coastal region.
Airport authorities said the service will operate twice a week—on Sundays and Tuesdays—from March 1. The initial flights are scheduled on March 3, 8 and 10, followed by March 15 and 17, with the same operating pattern to continue thereafter. The flight duration is approximately three hours and 25 minutes.
The Mangaluru–Muscat route was earlier operated under the 2025 summer schedule, with services beginning on July 14. At that time, Air India Express had operated four flights a week before suspending the service.
Officials said the summer schedule will come into effect from March 29, after which changes in flight timings and departure schedules from Mangaluru are expected. Passengers have been advised to check the latest schedules while planning their travel.
The resumption of direct flights to Muscat is expected to significantly benefit expatriates, business travellers and others, further strengthening Mangaluru’s air connectivity with the Gulf region.

He deserves punishment
shameless teacher (cheater). he can't learn from his own history (gottempadi case)
He is Not Just Basavaraj...He is Bori Basava....Must be punished
All students should not hide such cases... They should complain to parents or elders who they can trust, when they face such criminal activity, who deceive and show their innocent faces to public.
