In the video shared by ANI, Siddaramaiah can be heard reprimanding the aide and then giving him a slap on the cheek and manhandling him.
Incidentally, this is not the only time Siddaramaiah has been caught having public outbursts. Back in January, Siddaramaiah was seen outraging a woman’s modesty during a Congress event.
In a fit of rage, the former CM, who is surrounded by his followers, was seen lunging towards the woman in an attempt to snatch the mic she was holding. In the ensuing fracas, the dupatta also came off with the mic.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
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.
