In Kolkata, police had to use teargas on stone throwing mobs that went on the rampage, setting at least three buses on fire on the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass after one of them ran over two first year college students at Chingrighata. The two victims, who died on the spot, were residents of areas adjacent to the bypass and locals poured onto the arterial road, setting fire to buses, stoning cars and the police force that had rushed to the spot.
