Pillayan's supporters get beaten up by women's footwear

A tense situation occurred when State Minister Sivanesathurai Chandrakanthan alias Pillayan had inaugurated a fish breeding center in the Pachchaivatte area in Vakarai, Batticaloa.

The situation between the state minister's supporters and public had heightened and the women present had even assaulted the supporters with their footwear.
