After 14 hours of detention, 32 madrasa children finally released in Bihar

Thirty-two Muslim children who were detained the previous day in Mokama, Bihar, for wearing skull caps have been released after spending nearly 14 hours behind bars.

The release comes after a video showing the students in custody went viral on social media platforms. The media initially



reported that the children were detained by Mokama police, but it was later confirmed that the Railway Protection Force (RPF) at Mokama railway station had detained the students.

The group was travelling to Gujarat’s Surat city to resume studies at Jamia Zakariya Madarsa after Eid holidays.
