Nagpur: A scuffle broke out between the Dhantoli Police and local vendors at Netaji Market on Thursday night following an argument over the blocking of the entry gate of Bhide Girls Highschool. A video of the incident has since gone viral on social media platforms.
According to police sources, vendors had blocked the gate due to the weekly market, but this posed a problem as exams were underway at the school. When an on-duty cop asked a tomato vendor to clean the entrance of the school, the vendor reportedly picked a fight with the cop.
