Ranchi deputy commissioner (DC) Chhavi Ranjan said that a joint committee of magistrates and deputy superintendents of police has been set up to probe the authenticity of the video.

 
" A video of the incident went viral on social media. In a bid to check the authenticity of the video, a joint committee of magistrate and deputy superintendent of police has been set up to probe it," he said.
 


He further mentioned that Ranchi’s Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) has also set up a team to investigate the technical aspects of the video.

Meanwhile, AIMIM's Jharkhand unit president Mohammed Shakri said it was an attempt to tarnish the party's image. "None of our workers raised such slogans. If any such incident took place, the administration should immediately arrest the person behind it," he said.
