Ongole: TDP Female Activists Attempt To Attack AP Home Minister Taneti Vanitha’s Convoy

ONGOLE: It has become a fashion of sorts for the Opposition Telugu Desam Party workers to create ruckus and stage dharnas and protests and attack the ruling party leaders. Right after  the incident where Andhra Pradesh Women’s Commission Chairperson Vasireddy Padma was attacked in Vijayawada, women TDP activists on Monday tried to attack the vehicle of AP Home Minister Taneti Vanitha in Ongole in a similar fashion.

The Home Minister was on her way to visit the Repalle Railway Station gang rape victim who was undergoing treatment in RIIMs.  A group of women who seemed to have arrived as part of a pre-meditated plan knowing that she would be visiting the victim, started running on the road behind her vehicle. They raised slogans and  tried to attack her convoy and even tried to break the windshield of her car.Police had to be rushed in to quell the protestors. One of the ladies who couldn’t handle the scorching heat fainted and had to be given water and taken aside to safety.
