In the intense political row over the security breach that left Prime Minister Narendra Modi stuck on a highway in Punjab, a top minister of the state's Congress government found himself surrounded by protesting BJP workers on a road. In a video that is in wide circulation, he is seen chanting PM Modi's name to get the protesters to back off.
Punjab Deputy Chief Minister OP Soni was driving to Amritsar when his car was stopped and surrounded by BJP workers protesting the PM's security breach yesterday.
A video shows the BJP workers shouting "Jai Shri Ram" as they block Mr Soni's car. He is then seen raising "Modi Zindabad" slogans, after which the protesters let him go.
A blame game has erupted over the Prime Minister's security breach in the run-up to the Punjab election in February-March.
