Rotten eggs and tomatoes were pelted at the convoy of Praja Rajyam Party chief Chiranjeevi in Chittoor district on Thursday. People from their rooftops threw eggs at the convoy and jeered the Tollywood hero.
As Chiru did not have many supporters along with him during his tour of Chittoor none of them accompanying him retaliated. The police who were accompanying the Tollywood actor tried to take into custody a few attackers.
Chiru who was in a jovial mood asked the police not to take any action against the pelters of eggs and tomatoes. 'They were only eggs and not stones,' he seemed to have suggested.
As a precautionary measure, police arrested some of Jaganmohan Reddy’s supporters in view of Chiru’s visit to Rayalaseema.
