Siwan SP Puran Kumar Jha said action was taken against personnel who fired an AK-47 during a July 25 student protest. Protests turned violent with stone-pelting, prompting tear gas and lathicharge. Demonstrators demanded Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation over the NEET leak. Similar unrest in Patna saw vandalism of police vehicles during a statewide shutdown.
