Hyderabad: Tension prevailed at the venue of the old city Metro Rail inauguration program on Thursday night when Congress workers objected to the placement of cutouts featuring AIMIM party leaders.
Local Congress leader Naresh argued that AIMIM leaders should refrain from placing cutouts at the venue, emphasizing that it is a government program. He highlighted that the Congress party played a crucial role in expediting the Rs 2000 crore project.
