As Youth Congress workers got the information, they gathered on the National Highway nearby Una college. Meanwhile, police also rushed to the spot. Despite police efforts to dissuade them, the congress workers managed to show black flags to the Chief Minister.
Seeing black flags, workers and leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha stopped and started arguing with Youth Congress workers.
