Vijayawada (Andhra Pradesh) [India], Nov 21 (ANI): On the concluding day of F1H2O powerboat racing event in Vijayawada on November 18, a female reporter of a vernacular news channel was allegedly abused by a man while covering the event.
The reporter was doing live reporting when she was allegedly shunted out by the security personnel present there. When she questioned them over the sudden wrap-up, a person, said to be one of the members of the event's organiser team, made sarcastic comments against her, which led to an altercation between the two.
