In a video that has gone viral on Twitter, Tamil Nadu minister for Milk and Dairy Development SM Nasar, who is an MLA from Avadi constituency near Chennai can be seen picking up a stone from the ground and throwing it at Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) workers. The workers are not visible in the video.
While throwing the stone, he can be heard shouting at them for the delay in bringing chairs.
Reacting to this viral video, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president asked if anyone had seen a minister flout all norms of decorum and decency to throw stones. Further, he said that the DMK was treating its party workers like slaves.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
