A video has gone viral in social media in which the husband of DMK councillor along with his goons can be seen misbehaving and threatening a woman.

According to reports, Devi, a resident of Oyyathopu in Kodungaiyur area of Chennai had gone to the office of K Sharmila Gandhi, the councillor of Greater Chennai Corporation’s ward number 34.

In the video, Karunanidhi can be heard questioning Devi about the construction of a wall despite him warning against it.

In response, Devi fiercely tells him that she is the owner of the land and that he has no right to question.

Immediately, goons seated next to Karunanidhi rise up from their chair and threaten the woman who in turn asks them to not raise their voices.

As the unruly scenes unfold, the woman DMK councillor Sharmila Gandhi can be seen seated next to her husband doing nothing.

“You are the councillor, not him. A councillor should not threaten the public, they should solve their queries. This is not how you are supposed to treat a woman.”, Devi can be heard saying.

A report by The New Indian Express noted that the DMK high command had conducted an enquiry and found no wrong on the councillor and her husband’s part.

Gandhi was also quoted in the report saying that the compound wall of the building was encroaching the road and that they had called the woman to the office based on a complaint by the Kumaran Nagar Association.

However, this video has become a fodder for opposition parties like the AIADMK and BJP to attack the DMK government.
