Lack of seating arrangement was the primary concern of the protesting students who blocked a road in Vaishali before turning violent. "There are more student admissions than the capacity of school classrooms here. The students who did not find a place to sit inside started protesting and blocked a road. We are trying to run the school in two shifts. A probe is on," Vaishali SDO Neeraj Kumar was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
