Guwahati, July 22 (IBNS): At least four students and a police personnel were injured in a clash between students and security personnel in Manipur’s Imphal on Saturday, while the students of a higher secondary school protested to demand roll back of the transfer of eight teachers.

The protest march turned violent when police tried to stop the students of CC higher secondary school in Imphal as they tried to march towards the Chief Minister’s bungalow to demand for immediate revocation of the transfer order of eight teachers.

According to reports, the protest turned more violent after protesters pelted stones, targeting security personnel who were stopped.

To bring the situation under control, police personnel fired tear gas cells and also used mock bombs.

In the clash, four students sustained injuries and a police personnel was hurt.

Later, police and district administration brought the situation under control after discussing with the student leaders about the issue.
