Chief Minister's presence in the town created law and order problem resulting into minor injuries to a CRPF jawan.
Reports said that as soon as Chief Minister's cavalcade reached Government secondary school in Qimoh, Youths in large numbers came out and resorted to stone pelting, forcing shopkeepers to close down the shops. However none of the stones hit the cavalcade due to tight security. Security forces later swiftly chased away the stone pelting youth.
