“My car was fired at the Chhajarsi toll gate some time ago. 4 rounds were fired. There were 3-4 people, all of them ran away and left the weapons there. My car got punctured, but I got out in another car and left. We are all safe. Alhamdulillah,” Owaisi tweeted after the incident. As per Zee News Hindi, police made one arrest in the matter shortly after the incident.
