Incident of firing too

Patliputra (Bihar) – Crude bombs were hurled at Hostel in Patna University on the morning of 4th December. There was a firing too. This incident took place at Maulana Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi Minority Hostel and Iqbal hostel. Mayank, originally from Jehanabad district, was reported to be seriously injured in this incident. The Police reached the spot immediately on getting the report and have arrested 4 students in this case. The Police have also mentioned a seizure of crude bombs from the scene. They have also reportedly found metal rods and sticks at the scene. As a result of an old dispute, students Mintu and Jackson are said to have bombed the Nadwi and Iqbal hostels. Ashok Singh, Deputy Superintendent of Police, said that this is not the first incident that has taken place in Patna College campus. There have been many reports of such incidents earlier. The college administration should expel such students after identifying them.

It is of utmost necessity to take action against such students. Unless strict disciplinary action or expulsion is taken against the accused students, such incidents would be very difficult to curb.

Editorial Perspective

Bihar has jungle raj ! If college students are committing such acts instead of focusing on their studies, it is very easy to predict what they will do after graduation in the future !
