Preliminary investigation and examination of CCTV footage indicated that around 15 to 20 people associated with another coaching institute in Patna were allegedly involved in the stone pelting and vandalism act, it added.

Mr. Khan, addressing reporters after the incident, said, "Some anti-social elements from a nearby coaching created widespread damage, beat our guard badly and even fired gunshots. Their primary angst is how can someone teach students at such a low cost and still deliver thousands of results each year." He was referring to the results of Bihar Police Recruitment exams, released recently.

Raids are being conducted to apprehend those involved, and further legal action will be taken in accordance with the law, police said.
