Angry students on Tuesday clashed with personnel of the Railway Protection Force (RPF) and vandalised two trains at the Bihta railway station in Bihar, following a row over tickets.
Reports said the students vandalised Shramjeevi and Sanghamitra Express and also set on fire four coaches of the former. They also pelted stones on RPF personnel.
The clashes began amidst a scuffle between RPF personnel and students over tickets. Reports said the RPF personnel boarded the Shramjeevi Express at the Bihta station and asked the students travelling on the train to show tickets.
However, a row broke out between the two groups leading to clashes following which the RPF fired in the air and resorted to lathicharge to disperse the angry students.
When the reports last came in, the situation was tense in the area. link
