A video suggestive of Stalin "slapping" the driver, who tried to take a selfie with him at Gudalur in Nilgiris district, went viral yesterday. He was on his second leg of his Namakku Naame (we for ourselves) when the 'incident' occurred.
"It was purely computer graphics (creation), like done some months ago," Stalin said referring to video footages of him allegedly slapping a passenger in a metro train in Chennai in July went viral.
Later clarifying on the issue, Stalin told an interactive session with small industrialists, that he was particular that the party workers did not block the way of public, in their enthusiasm to reach him.
"When the driver came near to take selfie, to protect myself and members of public, I might have pushed and my hand might have toughed the body of the particular person", he said.
