An angry mob of college students went on vendalisation spree destroying railway property worth lakhs and setting on fire a coach of the Shramjeevi Express at Bihar, some 30 km away from Patna, on the Patna-New Delhi route.

The students were angered by beating up of a fellow student by Railway Police personnel for sitting in an AC coach of the Shramjeevi Express without a valid pass.

For close to two hours, the town was held to ransom, as a pitched battle was fought between the police and the mob. The area SP Bibek Raj Singh said: “We trying to arrest those responsible for the murder.”
