They had scribbled some vulgar remarks on the walls of the school.

The incident took place at a residential school in Triveniganj . The 34 girls were then admitted to Triveniganj referral hospital after the assault where they were said to be out of danger.

The girls have alleged that the boys used to pass lewd comments at them. When the girls resisted their advances the boys barged into the school and attacked the girls leaving many injured.
