In Punjab’s Mohali, a scuffle between two children aged between 10 and 15 took a disturbing turn when the parents of one child intervened. The situation escalated after a woman was heard calling the other child “Bhaiyye” and a man accompanying her was seen slapping the minor. The incident, recorded on camera, has since gone viral on social media.
In the video, a minor scuffle between two children is seen. A young boy, estimated to be 10–12 years old and described as a poor migrant child, is involved in a dispute with another child over what appears to be a minor fight.
Woman Uses Derogatory Slur ‘Bhaiyye’
The mother of one of the children is heard derogatorily calling the boy “Bhaiyye.” She is also heard yelling at the child, repeatedly demanding to know why he slapped the other kid.
Man Drags and Slaps the Child
Meanwhile, a man accompanying the woman is seen holding the child’s hand and dragging him. Moments later, the man slaps the child, further escalating the situation.
