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.

Bengaluru, Jun 9: JD(S) patriarch H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday filed his nomination as party's candidate for June 19 Rajya Sabha elections from Karnataka.

The former Prime Minister was accompanied by his sons former Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy and former Minister H D Revanna, state JD(S) chief H K Kumaraswamy and others, as he filed his papers at the office of Legislative Assembly Secretary M K Vishalakshi, who is the returning officer for the polls. JD(S) on Monday had announced that Gowda will be contesting the Rajya Sabha polls.

Announcing the decision, Kumaraswamy had said Gowda decided to contest following the request of Congress President Sonia Gandhi, several national leaders and party legislators, and it was not an easy task to "persuade" him to enter the Rajya Sabha.

The JD(S), which has 34 seats in the assembly, is not in a position to win a seat in Rajya Sabha on its own and will need support from the Congress with its surplus votes. A minimum of 45 votes are required for a candidate to win. If he wins, this will be the second Rajya Sabha entry for 87-year-old Gowda, the first time being in 1996 as the Prime Minister.

Gowda was defeated in Tumkur constituency by BJP's G S Basavaraj by over 13,000 votes in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. As joint candidate of the then ruling Congress-JDS coalition, Gowda had chosen to contest from Tumkur at the last minute after vacating Hassan-his home turf, to grandson Prajwal Revanna (a current MP).

Election is scheduled on June 19 to fill four Rajya Sabha seats from Karnataka, represented by Rajeev Gowda and BK Hariprasad of Congress, Prabhakar Kore of the BJP and D Kupendra Reddy of JD(S) that will fall vacant on June 25, with their retirement. Today is the last date for filing nominations. With BJP not fielding any candidate against Gowda, his election is likely to be unanimous.
