Youth hurls shoes at Gujarat home minister Pradeepsinh Jadeja
Gujarat home minister Pradeepsinh Jadeja ended up ducking more than just uncomfortable questions while addressing the media in Gandhinagar on Thursday when a youth hurled a pair of shoes at him. The youth, identified as Gopalbhai Italia who claimed to be a state government employee, attacked Jadeja midway through his speech at the Gujarat legislative assembly complex.
The first shoe Italia threw hit the podium behind which Jadeja was standing. When he hurled the second shoe, Jadeja managed to duck. Immediately afterwards, security personnel apprehended Italia preventing him from approaching the minister. The police later said that Italia appeared unstable.
