Woman says T.N. Revenue Minister did not hit her, but only tapped on her head with affection

A day after Bharatiya Janata Party condemned Revenue Minister K.K.S.S.R. Ramachandran for "beating" a woman petitioner near Aruppukottai, the woman on Wednesday clarified that the Minister had only tapped on her head with papers in a friendly manner.

BJP State president K. Annamalai on Tuesday tweeted a video clipping in which Mr. Ramachandran is seen tapping on the head of Kalavathi of Palavanatham with a bunch of envelopes. Mr. Annamalai flayed Mr. Ramachandran for his action and sought his resignation failing which he threatened to lay siege to the Minister's residence.
