Teacher's Speech On Respecting Women

A Twitter user shared the video on Twitter writing, "In her way, this teacher gave a very important lesson of respect to the boys in her class."

Several boys attempt to catcall her and persuade her to sit alongside them, but the teacher instructs the girl to sit in the front. Rather than getting upset, the teacher educates the boys. She pointed out- we make society, if you are bad for some girl, there is going to be some bad person for your sister or mother. She emphasized the existence of karma and how one's deeds always come back to them. She also illustrates how respect for different genders might reveal one's upbringing.
