The former Congress MP was gheraoed when she was coming out of the Airport by protesters and eggs were thrown at her car.

Ramya was travelling from Kadri from the Airport to participate in a programme when the incident took place. The protesters are believed to be members of Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Bajrang Dal and ABVP.

She was escorted by the police away from airport to attend a local event.

“I was told by the police that eggs were thrown. It was part of the convoy…I don't know which car was hit by eggs,” Ms Ramya said.

Ramya has been facing sedition charge after saying that she did not agree with Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar's comments that Pakistan is a hell.

"I love Mangaluru. People of Mangaluru are so sweet," she told the gathered media at Mangaluru International Airport on her arrival to the city to take part in the function. Vehemently denying that she had said "Mangaluru is hell", Ramya said her statement given in the TV interview was "edited" and taken out of context.

Insisting that her statement be seen and read in the context of the question posed to her, Ramya said it is the media that is making an issue out the "edited" statement. "I have come to Mangaluru on several occasions. I have visited Mookambika Temple. Today, I have come to visit Sri Kshetra Kadri and be part of the Sri Krishna Janmashtami celebrations," the actor maintained, adding, "It is a calling."

Stupid people.. Mind washed idiots...

Apna party kare tho SHAAN aur dusre party ke comments se bhi apaman..

What modi did - without invitation he visited to pak and had nice food.
(What modi's speeches were before election on pak and now what he is - Think karo - ye jumla party hai)
What Sushma said - hamare purwaj lahore me hai.. samman ho raha hai.
What Bhagwath said - Hame pak se dosthi ka haath badana chahiye..hahhahahhah

Why these jobless people make gherao to their own people first. Live like a gentleman and work for justice not like a cowardice.
