Congress leader caught on camera allegedly touching woman inappropriately

In a major embarrassment to the Congress, a senior party leader was caught on camera touching a woman, allegedly in an inappropriate manner, during Independence day function in Karnataka’s Madikeri.

Former president of Madikeri Congress unit and current Chairman of the Silk Board TP Ramesh was seen attempting to hold MLC Veena Achaiah’s hand in full public view.

“We are from the same region and I consider Veena as my sister. The video is being shared to defame me,” Ramesh said.
