The BJD activists in Odisha on Wednesday allegedly hurled eggs at Union Tribal Affairs Minister Jual Oram's vehicle, and waved black flags in Odisha's Kendrapara district.
The incident took place at Aul market in Kendrapara, when the minister was on his way to take part in 'Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas' programme at Rajkanika.
The SP said that police had earlier made preventive arrest of over 100 Congressmen near Aul after they waved black flags in protest against Oram's visit.
“Though the police were present, they handled the situation casually. Had they stopped the protesters, the unfortunate incident could have been averted," former president of BJP district unit Gyanadeb Beura said.
On 10 June, Congress party workers had allegedly hurled eggs at the vehicle of Union Minister Radha Mohan Singh in Bhubaneswar.
