The Additional DG reached Jajpur soon after the incident and discussed the matter with the SP.
According to the MLA, he was going to the DDM office when he saw some people blocking the road. As his vehicle stopped there, some people rushed to him and hit his car with iron rods and wooden sticks. They even beat him and snatched away his gold chain from his neck.
The Dharmasala MLA said the miscreants were shouting "Bobby Bhai Jindabad". He demanded that former MLA Bobby Das be arrested immediately.
As tension ran high, a team of local police and the SP reached the spot and started to pacify the situation.
Later, the miscreants, as the MLA allege to be supporters of BJD leader Bobby Das, went to the Jajpur police station and created a ruckus there.
