Hyderabad: Chiranjeevi breaks queue at polling booth

Hyderabad, Apr 30 (IBNS) Union minister and Congress leader K Chiranjeevi was stopped by a young voter as he tried to jump queue at a polling booth in Hyderabad to cast his vote on Wednesday.

Chiranjeevi came with his wife, son and daughter to cast his vote at a polling booth in Jubilee Hills area.

He allegedly tried to sidestep the long queue of voters when a young IT professional Raja Karthik Ganta stopped him, objected to his VIP treatment and said he should also join the queue like all people and exercise his franchise.

To that, Chiranjeevi said 'ok' and also apologized to the youth before joining the queue. He had to wait for about 25 minutes for his turn at the EVM.

Pertinently, Raja had come from London to cast his vote.
