The video footage shows the protesters stopping the school bus and attempting to set it on fire, while the bus, filled with children, can be seen narrowly passing the incident and escaping unharmed.
The bus narrowly escapes the inferno by driving over burning tires, leaving everyone shaken.
Protesters can also been seen vandalising the school bus windshield, putting lives at risk. The protests have turned into a nightmare for school students, with many private schools in Patna forced to shut down and others suspending bus services, as per media reports.
The Bharat Bandh was organized by Bhim Army members and supported by other parties, including the RJD and Vikassheel Insaan Party, to protest the recent Supreme Court order. The order allows state governments to sub-classify SCs and STs, potentially creating separate quotas for more disadvantaged groups.
Ahead of the protests, the Patna District Magistrate warned against violence and property damage, stating that those involved would face legal consequences.
