KADAPA: Hours before Praja Rajyam president Chiranjeevi’s arrival in Pulivendula for his Praja Ankita Yatra, unidentified miscreants attacked the party leaders at the Roads & Buildings guest house here on Tuesday night.
They damaged the cars of the party’s district observer Kotagiri Vidyadhara Rao, Rayalaseema in-charge N.V. Prasad and former Minister B. Sobha Nagi Reddy.
The attack took place when Praja Rajyam leaders and activists called for a press conference at the guest house to deplore the action of some persons in tearing away their party flags and some flexiboards in Pulivendula. In all, six cars and an autorickshaw were damaged by stick-wielding youth, who later fled in a Tata Sumo.
The Praja Rajyam leaders and functionaries and mediapersons ran helter-skelter at the sudden attack.
The miscreants manhandled the gunman of Sobha Nagi Reddy as she was entering the guest house.
About eight persons, including an autorickshaw driver, sustained injuries. Policemen present at the scene did not act.
