In Patna, India, the police hit people with sticks (lathi-charge) who were protesting near the government building.

These protestors were from a party called Jan Suraaj, led by Prashant Kishor.

They were upset about things like jobs, land, and corruption in how land is surveyed.

The protestors were trying to get to the government building to make their voices heard, but the police stopped them.

Inside the building, other politicians were also making a fuss about how people are registered to vote and other issues.
