The incident took place around 2 am, when the minister and his convoy was passing through Ghoti toll plaza, located around 20 kms from here.
"While the minister's vehicle passed through lane no. six, a vehicle carrying his bodyguards was passing through another lane at the toll plaza. However, when the toll booth employee stopped their vehicle, an argument broke between him and one of the bodyguards, who was seeking VIP entry," an officer of Ghoti police station said.
Police registered an offence against an unidentified person in this connection and the accused has been booked under IPC sections 337 (causing hurt by act endangering life or personal safety of others) and 427 (mischief causing damage to the amount of fifty rupees).
Further investigation into the case is on.
