According to the police, constables Vinod and Sitaram were managing traffic at Maujpur Chowk around 7 PM yesterday when an altercation broke out between them and the autorickshaw driver Asif after they told him to move his vehicle forward in order to ease the traffic jam.
Asif then called up 10-12 people, who reached the spot and thrashed the cops, police said.
