HYDERABAD: Congress MLC Teenmar Mallanna 's gunman opened fire at the MLC's office in Medipally to control members of Telangana Jagruthi , who had come to confront Mallanna.

At least one person was injured in the incident.

Telangana Jagruthi, an organization headed by BRS MLC K Kavitha , took objection to Mallanna's recent statement against Kavitha, made in the backdrop of the 42% reservation for the BC community.

In response to his remarks, a mob allegedly affiliated with Telangana Jagruthi went to his office while Mallanna was present, reportedly to corner him.

As the mob resorted to vandalism and attempted to barge into a room to target Mallanna, his gunman opened fire to control the situation.
