An elderly woman today threw a stone at Jharkhand Chief Minister Arjun Munda’s convoy, breaking the wind screen of his pilot car in Simdega, the police said here. Munda’s car was at a safe distance and the driver of the pilot car managed to maintain the speed that avoided any pile-up of cars following it, the sources said. The incident happened during Munda’s “Johar Yatra (road tour)” of the district, and he was returning to Circuit House after attending a programme near the block office, the police said. The police said the woman was taken into custody for questioning and ‘that she appeared to be mentally deranged’. PTI
