Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 9July 15,This action never acceptable

The Gulf News story on India’s Tamil Nadu’s Chief Minister Jayalalitha condemning Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) leader M.K. Stalin for allegedly slapping a metro passenger was indeed one to be condemned (‘Jayalalitha flays Stalin for ‘slap’ on metro’, Gulf News, July 3). Whatever be the reasons, despite misbehaviour by the passenger as per Stalin’s version, he should not have slapped him. Politicians should behave properly in front of the public. They are elected by the people and should show respect always.
