Kendrapada: The BJD activists on Wednesday hurled eggs at Union Tribal Affairs Minister Jual Oram’s car and later waved black flags at him in Kendrapada district.

Irked over the incident, a group of BJP activists scuffled with the BJD workers. Police had to resort to mild lathi-charge to disperse the agitators. Several ruling party activists were detained following the violent clash.
Reacting to the egg hurling incident, Jual tweeted, “I condemn in the strongest terms the anti-Adivasi mindset of BJD who have thrown eggs on me in Kendrapara.”
