Congress leader Siddaramaiah was in Mandya to address the grievances of the public. A lady took the mike and started accusing Siddaramaiah of not doing anything. Siddaramaiah got angry and he not only pulled the mike from the lady's hand, but also pulled her dupatta. He warned her, made her sit and shouted at her. Reacting to the same, Karnataka BJP leader KS Eshwarappa slammed Siddaramaiah and condemned his behaviour with the woman in Mandya. Later, Siddaramaiah took to twitter to offer his clarification. He said, "The incident with the woman was accidental. I had no ill intention. She is like my sister."
