Sanjay was on his way to take stock of the paddy procurement issues ailing the farmers of the districts when the TRS workers hurled stones and eggs at the BJP leader's convoy.
Staging a protest at Arjala Bhavi village, the TRS activists tried to obstruct Sanjay's visit with black flags and raised the slogans - "Bandi Sanjay go back." The BJP workers, who came there in large numbers to welcome Sanjay, clashed with the TRS workers, resulting in jostling between the two parties.

Later, the Telangana BJP chief was able to make his way to the paddy procurement centre and assured the farmers that the crop would be procured by the Central government even during the Rabi season.
