Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh's vehicle was allegedly attacked and media persons accompanying the party's ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' were "manhandled" by miscreants in Assam's Sonitpur district on Sunday, a party leader said.

The Rahul Gandhi-led Yatra is on its fourth day in the state, travelling from Biswanth district through Sonitpur to Nagaon.

"The car of Ramesh ji and some others were moving to join the main Yatra entourage near Jamugurighat when it came under attack", All India Congress Committee (AICC) communications coordinator Mahima Singh told PTI.

"We informed the police and the additional superintendent of police is at the location now", she added.
