Ms. Samyuktha and her friends were harassed by the lady and following which they were locked inside the park by the mob and were mercilessly shouting slogans vandalizing her character.
The actor further recorded in live video on Instagram where one of her two friends was hit by Congress Leader Kavitha Reddy.
Samyuktha Hegde was compelled to show to the viewers what she was wearing as the proof that this is so wrong. The title of her live was ‘this is wrong’ where she recorded the entire assault from beginning until the end.
Samyuktha Hegde further tweeted saying that ” the future of this country reflects on what we do today. Today, we were ridiculed and harassed by Kavitha Reddy at Agara Lake. She then tagged @BlrCityPolice and @CPBlr.
She got covered immediately by times of India and her concern was shared and became the most ridiculous news.
We are facing so many atrocities against women in this country. It has been soaring high ever since. So many movements, so many initiatives but still we have 100’s and thousands of crime being reported on daily basis against women.
More horrific part is the moral policing women are subjected to from every walk of life.
In her live video which our team was a viewer of, Samyuktha Hegde and her two friends were attacked by Kavitha Reddy. Samyuktha in the video made it very much clear that they were working out and were harassed first based on the clothes which was basically a sports wear and then the mob lashed out at them falsely accusing them of doing drugs.
The matter became grave when on the live police were seen supporting the mob and the act of locking the girls inside the park.
