BJP workers protest against violation of protocol

Mild tension prevailed during the launch of JNNURM buses in Mahabubnagar on Friday when BJP workers clashed with the TRS activists alleging violation of protocol.

The BJP workers tried to disrupt the programme, which was attended by Transport Minister Mahender Reddy, alleging that the party MLC Ramchander Rao’s name was not printed on the event’s banner. The BJP and TRS workers even pushed each other. Consequently, the local police intervened and dispersed both the groups. (INN)
