clash with police
When the students tried to burn the principal’s effigy while taking out his symbolic bier, they clashed with the police. The clash escalated so much that the students not only pushed the police but also pushed ACP Kotwali Rohit Kumar and made him fall on the road. After this he got up and his anger also seemed to be increasing. He first got up and controlled himself and then tried to catch the student who had dropped him. After this, he reached a policeman and took the stick from his hand and caught the student who tried to knock him down. Due to this, the clash increased between all the students and the policemen. In the video, girl students were also seen pushing the policemen. However, after this the police somehow brought the situation under control by using mild force. But considering the situation, force has been deployed in the college campus.
