KATHMANDU: The Community School Management Committee Federation of Nepal (SMC Federation) has condemned the incident of sexual harassment against a girl student at Letang Municipality-5 of Morang.

Manoj Poudel, a teacher of Sikshya Bikas Secondary School has been accused of sexually harassing the seventh grader of the same school.
