April 30, 2014 11:21

An embarrassed Union Minister K Chiranjeevi beat a hasty retreat today after a youth objected to his jumping the queue to cast his vote in a polling booth in Hyderabad.

Chiranjeevi, who came with his family, was escorted towards the polling booth sidestepping a long queue of voters.

An agitated youth confronted Chiranjeevi asking him howhe has bypassed the queue, saying that people have been waiting for more than 90 minutes for their turn.

"Why do you expect special treatment on a day like this," the youth asked.
