Two traffic constables were in critical condition after being beaten up by a mob here on Monday when they stopped two minors from riding a motorcycle, police said.
The incident occurred in Gokulpuri after the policemen -- identified as Head Constable Jai Bhagwan and Constable Manoj -- told the minors to show the driving licence.
According to police, the boys called up their family members -- and all of them suddenly pounced on the policemen and began to thrash them.
The violent attack, captured by a spectator, soon went viral on social media.
The video shows one of the policeman sprawled on the road while a group of men kick him from all sides. The other policeman is being slapped several times.
Police later arrested two suspects for the attack.
