He said that the police lathicharged the students and fired tear gas shells, we came to know that some policemen were drunk. The police sprayed water mixed with chemicals. Have the students done anything wrong? In a drunken state, the police hit a woman on the head with a stick. This was a movement of common people to save Bengal. A student has been admitted to the hospital in an injured state, we do not know whether he was shot or injured by a tear gas shell.
