Demolitions follow spate of harassment cases in Bihar

Demolitions followed a series of harassment allegations in Bihar, according to authorities. Four individuals accused of allegedly sexually harassing a minor girl had their properties demolished by officials. The four, Vikas Kumar Sharma, Rahul Kumar, Rambabu Sahni and Awadhesh Paswan, were arrested on Thursday after police received information about a video showing the abuse of the girl.

The administration also canceled one accused's PDS licence. The demolitions came amid a surge of videos depicting harassment incidents in Bihar over the past week, causing police to remain vigilant in several districts.
