Eggs Hurled at Former Dharmasala MLA in Odisha’s Jajpur

Tension escalated in Odisha’s Jajpur district on Thursday when a group of youths hurled eggs at the vehicle of BJD leader and former Dharmasala MLA, Pranab Kumar Balabantaray.

The incident occurred in Kurikana village within the Dharmasala Assembly constituency while Balabantaray was on his way to visit various Laxmi Puja pandals. According to police, the youths raised slogans against the former legislator and targeted his vehicle as he was returning from one of the pandals.

Jenapur police quickly arrived at the scene and have launched an investigation into the matter. Despite the attack, Balabantaray remained undeterred and continued his scheduled visits to the pandals, with no further disruptions reported.

The motive behind the egg-throwing incident is currently under investigation, and authorities are looking into possible political or personal grievances that may have sparked the act.
