It has been reported that the girl made 60 such videos, but police said they came across only one video of the accused herself and she also admitted to having made only one video.
The girl who made the video was caught by the warden and other students. In the video, the warden can be heard saying that she was doing this misdeed for quite some time.
Earlier, it was alleged that the girl who made the video sent it to a boy in Shimla. It was said that the boy from Shimla circulated the controversial videos on social media.
