The policemen, who can be identified with their epaulettes, are seen urging the CRPF personnel to stay calm and not to open fire.
The situation deteriorates when a young man approaches the CRPF post and asks the personnel to step out. The CRPF personnel abuse the man and then an armoured vehicle moves in and opens fire at the crowd.
