Padmaavat COLLATERAL DAMAGE: Karni Sena Attacks School Buses In Gurugram
This is the pits! Karni Sena has pelted stones at school buses while protesting for carrying little children in Gurugram...
After attacking malls and vandalising private properties, the Karni Sena has attacked school going kids. In a video that has surfaced online, one can see stones being pelted on school bus. Absolutely no heed is paid to little kids sitting inside the bus.
Stones were thrown at GD Goenka School bus which was carrying children near Bhondsi in Sohna, leaving the glass windows open. The driver, Parvesh Kumar, said no one was injured and the attackers ran away when the police came. One of the teachers who was present in the bus said they had made the children sit on the floor of the bus.
