False case by principal against students what to do


02-Apr-2023 (In Criminal Law)
The principal of our college fabricated a case against a few boys of my institution which was later proved fake in the presence of the Chairman of the college but he refused to take any action against the principal and hence the students went on a hunger strike and it's been 6 days now. i would like to know if something were to happen to the children then would the principal be held responsible? if yes by which act.
