SPG personnel and Congress workers overpowered the jawan who did not appear to be in a "sound mental condition" and was muttering to himself as he tried to force his way through the security cordon while Priyanka was addressing a rally in Harichandpur, her third of the day.
The jawan, who was wearing uniform, was involved in a scuffle with a policeman when he tried to prevent him from moving forward.
