Protesting teachers lathi charged in Patna.

Reports of police lathi charge over agitating contractual teachers in Patna last night, triggered strong protest by opposition in both Houses of Bihar Legislature on Tuesday (March 5). Question hour could not be taken up in Legislative Council due to strong protest staged by opposition RJD, Congress and CPI. As the House sat for the day to take up question hour in the Council, opposition members rose from their seat and raised slogans against the government over reports of police lathi charge over agitating contractual teachers. They were demanding statement from the government on the incident.
