AHMEDABAD: Hours after Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS) workers clashed with Congressmen, Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani termed PAAS leaders as Congress agents on Monday morning.
"PAAS leaders were working as agents of Congress, and now they have been totally exposed," said Rupani.
On Sunday evening, the Gujarat Congress released the first list of its 77 candidates for the state elections. Later, Congress and Hardik Patel led-PAAS said that they have reached an agreement over the issue of granting reservation to Patels, if the Congress is voted to power in the state.
However, unhappy with ticket distribution, agitated PAAS protestors clashed with Congress workers and vandalised party office in Surat.
Clashes also broke out between PAAS leader Dinesh Patel and a police personnel outside the residence of Gujarat Congress president Bharatsinh Solanki. The Patidaar leader informed that PAAS members had to wait for hours outside after they were called to Solanki`s residence for a meeting.
