He was caught on video flinging chairs towards police lines outside the mini secretariat just as tensions began to build up by a section of the crowd that began targeting the authorities and even the ACHIK organization leaders who had been invited for talks with chief minister Conrad K Sangma over their demand for winter capital in Garo Hills.
