The viral video showed the bus carrying school children surrounded by a large group of men. A burning tyre was seen underneath the bus in the clip. According to a report by NDTV, the Gopalganj police dismissed the viral claim and clarified that the group, in fact, was trying to remove the burning tire from underneath the bus.
