‘Bharat Bandh’: Policeman ‘Mistakenly’ Hits SDM with Stick During Lathicharge

Patna: A bizarre incident happened in Bihar’s capital Patna in which a policeman hit the city SDM during the lathicharge against the protesters who gathered on the busy road as a part of the Bharat Bandh protest. SDM Shrikant Kundlik Khandekar was standing in the middle of the road when the lathicharge began and came under the enraged police personnel’s action.

There was a huge ruckus in Patna during the Bharat Bandh protest. Bandh supporters clashed with the police, prompting security personnel to lathicharge the bandh supporters. The procession of bandh supporters was moving ahead from Gandhi Maidan when the police resorted to using light force to disperse the protesters.

Meanwhile, barricading was made near JP Golambhar in the city, but bandh supporters broke the barricading and started moving ahead. Police tried to stop them from breaking the barricading but they kept marching and reached Dak Bangla square. To control the situation and to stop the bandh supporters from moving ahead, police had to lathicharge. (India TV English)
