The police officials confirmed that the violent incident took place on Monday, 7th January.

The daily adds that the Principal has suspended the accused student. Besides, a committee has been formed to investigate the matter.
Certain sources told Inextlive.Jagran that the victim MBBS student had asked the junior students to not hang out around the girls’ hostel, which led to a dispute between the parties.
