Two journalists and a teacher received minor injuries during a fight over shooting a news report in a Delhi government-run school in northeast Delhi's Bhajanpura area, police said on Wednesday.
According to the police, a PCR call was received at Bhajanpura police station at around 1:40 pm regarding the incident on Tuesday. The call was made by a journalist.
The senior correspondent of a media channel along with his staff -- an assistant and a cameraman -- had reached the school at around 1 pm for a ground report when the school teachers caused wrongful confinement and destroyed their cameras, a senior police officer said.
The journalist alleged that as they were shooting, some teachers objected and snatched their video camera and damaged it. In the process, the recorded footage was destroyed, the officer said.
