Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy was injured after stones were pelted at him by unidentified persons during the ‘Memanta Siddham’ bus tour in Vijayawada on Saturday.

The chief minister suffered a small cut on the left side of his temple above the eye and was immediately provided first aid inside the bus.

"The stone struck the CM while he was acknowledging the crowds as part of his bus tour at Vivekananda School Centre in Singh Nagar, Vijayawada," said a statement from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO).

Unfazed by the attack, Jagan continued his journey after receiving the first aid.

The YSR Congress alleged that the TDP was behind this attack. 

Jagan has embarked on a 21-day election campaign bus tour from Idupulupaya in Kadapa district to Icchapuram in Srikakulam district.
