Convoy of Minister for Labour M. Malla Reddy was attacked by angry participants who threw footwear, stones and chairs while he was escorted by the police after abruptly leaving a public meeting — Reddy Simhagarjana — organised by an apolitical community platform Reddy Jagruthi, at Ghatkesar on Sunday evening.
A strong police force deployed expecting some trouble ensured that he left the place safely even as the participants ran after his convoy throwing footwear and whatever they could lay their hands on even as slogans ‘Malla Reddy down down’ rented the air.
The problem started when the Minister was speaking at the meeting. Some people objected to the Minister’s praise for the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) government and some of them rushed on to the stage questioning him showering praises on the government and complimenting the political parties since the meeting was about the welfare of the Reddy community.
