Two teachers eloped with two minor students and married against the wishes of their parents.This incident, which sent shockwaves among parents of the schoolchildren, took place at Yerrabalem village in Mangalagiri rural mandal, a few km away from Vijayawada.The teachers, T. Mounika and P. Lakshmi Tirupatha-mma, took away minor twins, both students of Class VIII in a private school, to a secret location in Vijayawada where they married them."The boys are minor. The teachers are in their early 20s. They left the school a few months ago after the management pulled them up for moving with the students. One of them is now working as a computer operator, and another is pursuing higher education. We had to do a lot of counselling to convince the teachers and the boys," said P. Annapoorna Reddy, assistant superintendent of police, Mangalagiri.Though the police succeeded in handing over the minor boys to their parents, the teachers remained stubborn arguing that they would wait till the boys turn majors, and would marry them then.The teachers were let off, though a case has been registered against them. The school management, however, is silent on the whole affair.
