In the video, school students are seen in uniform. Everyone was inside the bus. In the video, a woman (perhaps a teacher or a parent) is seen assuring the children that they will not be harmed. However, the veracity of the video has not been confirmed. However, widespread violence due to protests can instill fear in the minds of people. When former election strategist Prashant Kishor was asked about the protests against the Agneepath scheme, he asked the protesters to exercise restraint. PK told reporters that I would appeal to the protesters to stay away from violence, as it would weaken their movement. If they remain calm, the government will be forced to listen to their voices.
