War of words between BJP, Cong women councilors ends in fisticuffs

A meeting of the Palakkad Municipal Council ended in turmoil here on Monday following a clash between two women councilors.

Mini Krishnakumar and Anupama Nair, councilors of the BJP and the Congress respectively, engaged in fisticuffs in front of the chairperson’s podium over an issue relating to the digitisation of Government Moyan Model Girls Higher Secondary School, Palakkad.

Their joust even led to them ripping each other’s clothes. Later, both were admitted to the District Hospital here, claiming injuries.
