A 30-year-old teacher was allegedly dragged out of her classroom and stabbed to death by a masked man at a private school in Sikrauna, Faridabad, on Monday, police said. The attacker reportedly entered the school through the main gate between 9.30am and 9.40am. He had covered his face with a white cloth and allegedly waited inside before asking for the teacher.
