The woman has been identified as a worker under the rural employment guarantee scheme. The unfortunate incident took place in a village in the Armur Assembly segment when the Congress candidate was campaigning along with some other leaders.
The woman alleged that she has voted for Congress in the recent assembly election but she is not getting the pension.
The Congress candidate was accompanied by P. Vinay Kumar Reddy, who lost the Assembly election from Armur. Armur is one of the seven Assembly segments under Nizamabad Lok Sabha seat. For the upcoming election, the Congress has fielded Reddy against the incumbent MP, Dharmapuri Arvind of the BJP.
