NDTV Resident Editor Manish Kumar and cameraman Akram Ali were injured when pro-quota medical students attacked them with sticks and stones at the Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) here today.
They were attacked when they went to the hospital to interview students who were injured earlier in a baton-charge by police on pro-quota protestors who had turned violent.
As Kumar and Ali arrived at the hospital's emergency department, pro-quota protestors abused them and started throwing stones and beat them with sticks, officials said.
The students described them as "sympathisers of the anti-quota supporters".
While Kumar suffered a head injury, Ali sustained injuries in his leg, the officials said. Both of them received first aid at a nearby nursing home.
