Khan Sir faces backlash in his native village Bhatpar Rani

Popular teacher Khan Sir (Faisal Khan) faces arrest after Patna Police registered an FIR against him in connection with a firing incident outside his coaching institute following a dispute with a rival institute.

Both local villagers and his own relatives have levelled serious allegations against Khan Sir, who is a native of Bhatpar Rani in Uttar Pradesh’s Deoria district.

At Domdih in Bhatpar Rani, his relatives and neighbours accused Khan Sir of abusing his influence and obstructing village development work, among other things. They also accused Khan Sir of instigating a road dispute in the Domdih ward and getting a wall demolished in the neighbourhood.

Aditya Singh, the councillor of Domdih ward in Bhatpar Rani, alleged that Khan Sir stalled development work by stopping the construction of a drain being built by the Nagar Panchayat.

Local residents and relatives allege that Khan Sir’s sudden wealth and popularity have fuelled arrogance in his behavior. Ashok Singh, a local resident of Bhatpar Rani, claimed that since Khan Sir’s family purchased land in the area, the neighbourhood has faced constant harassment over access to the road for nearly two years. Ashok Singh further alleged that the boundary wall of his own house was demolished following a dispute.

Villagers say Khan Sir rarely visits the village, although he has built a large one-storey house there. A dispute ensued after the government started constructing a drain along the road in front of his house.

Attempts to contact Khan Sir for his comment on the allegations proved futile.
