Asked to pay fee, AP MP's son and group vandalise toll plaza

A group of people led by an Andhra Pradesh MP's son allegedly ransacked and vandalised a toll plaza at Bagepalli in Chikkaballapura district, after they were asked to pay the toll fees.

Hindupur MP Nimmal Kristappa's son Ambarish was on his way to Bengaluru International Airport and was asked to pay the fees at the toll plaza located near the Andhra Pradesh- Karnataka border, police said.

The occupants in the car along with Ambarish showed a pass, saying it exempts them from paying the toll. This led to arguments between them and toll plaza staff and resulted in ransacking and vandalising of the tollgate, police said.
Police said they have registered a case and are investigating.

A counter complaint was filed from Ambarish's side, accusing the toll plaza staff of damaging their car and obstructing them
