DK Shivakumar’s video slapping party worker goes viral, BJP attacks Congress
Karnataka Congress chief D K Shivakumar was caught on camera slapping a party worker during an election campaign in Haveri on Saturday.
The viral clip shows Shivakumar getting down from a car in Savanur and Congress workers can be seen surrounding him and shouting slogans.
A video of the incident is now going viral on social media with several social media users posting the video.
Slamming the Congress leader over his behavior, BJP’s IT cell head Amit Malviya said in a post on X, “Karnataka’s DCM, D K Shivakumar, slaps Congress Municipal Member Allauddin Maniar, while campaigning in Savanur town of Haveri. This is not the first time D K has assaulted a Congress worker.
His crime? He happened to put his hands on D K Shivakumar’s shoulder, when the latter stepped out of the car.
I wonder why Congress workers even want to work for the Congress? Their leaders slap them, humiliate them, don’t give them tickets to contest (all of them are cornered by family members). Is it for the corruption money they make on the side? No self-respect?” his post read

This is not the first time that D K Shivakumar has shown arrogant behavior. Earlier in 2021, he slapped a party worker who tried to put his hand on his shoulder.
Shivakumar was in Mandya to check on the health of a party MP when the incident took place. When the party worker walking beside him tried to put his hands on the leader’s shoulder, Shivakumar snapped back and slapped him.
