Khan Sir Coaching Centre Attacked in Patna, Hundreds of Students Protest, Three Arrested

Hundreds of students staged a protest outside Khan Sir's coaching institute, Khan Global Studies, in Patna on Wednesday, June 3, against an attack that occurred on Tuesday night.

The protest resulted in a lot of traffic congestion around Musallahpur Haat, with students blocking the roads and shouting slogans for justice. The traffic was stopped in both directions, and a large crowd gathered outside the coaching centre.

The protest comes a day after a group of 15 to 20 people allegedly attacked and vandalised Khan Global Studies on Tuesday night. The group reportedly hurled stones at the institute, broke property, ripped banners celebrating the Bihar Police exam results and injured a security guard.

Students Demand Strict Action

Angry students converged in large numbers Wednesday morning, calling for action to be taken against those responsible for the attack.

But police said the investigation is ongoing. Stone-throwing and scuffling were confirmed by officials looking at CCTV footage. But police said there is no evidence of gunshots yet.

3 men arrested

Police have arrested three people in connection with the attack, including a person linked to a rival coaching institute. CCTV footage and evidence is still being analysed to find out who else may be involved. The area is under heavy police guard to ensure that there is no further disturbance.
