The protesting students gathered near the Dak Bungalow crossing in Patna and raised slogans against the government. They also breached the security barricades following which the Bihar Police started to baton-charge them, reported news agency PTI.
“Protesters gathered at Dak Bungalow crossing in large numbers and disrupted vehicular movement there. They also breached the police barricades and reached near the Kotwali Police station, which is a restricted area,” Patna SSP Kartikeya K Sharma told PTI.
“We requested them to vacate the area as it had caused a massive traffic jam. As they refused to pay heed to the appeal, the police resorted to baton-charge to disperse them,” he added.
