Kanpur Violence: Seven policemen, who were in front of a crowd of thousands for 45 minutes, a brave soldier, drove the miscreants away from the jeep

When there was a ruckus outside the Chandreshwar gate in Kanpur, only seven policemen were present there, out of which one was a CO, five constables, and a gunner. The number of policemen was very less. Due to the absence of a heavy police force, the ruckus escalated, but the police along with some people tried their best to stop the crowd from coming towards the parade from the new road. Had the crowd reached the parade crossroads, there could have been a bigger ruckus. Even the Beconganj police had no idea of ​​such a big ruckus. When the crowd of thousands was coming from the front, only seven policemen were present there. At the time of the incident, ACP Anwarganj Mohammad Akmal Khan first reached the spot. Seeing the furious crowd, he ran along with four soldiers behind the jeep of Beconganj police station. He took the front from the miscreants and started lathi-charge with the constable so that they could not gather in one place.

By then, he had also sent a message to the officials to send the backup. However, the force arrived after 45 minutes due to being on VVIP duty. By then there had been stone-pelting and sloganeering in many cycles.

The brave soldier made the miscreants run away from the jeep

At the time of the ruckus, there were only seven policemen at Sadbhavna Chowki. Seeing the mob moving towards himself while pelting stones, Mushtaq Khan, the jeep driver posted at the Beconganj police station, kept announcing while sitting alone in the jeep. When the crowd did not obey and intensified stone pelting, he increased the speed of the jeep and made the miscreants run.

The miscreants fled towards Leather Mandi located in Penchbagh, pelting stones in fear of the jeep. When Mushtaq was talking about this, he said that the crowd was very furious. They couldn't understand anything better than this. For them, keeping people safe is a priority.
