TN Governor Banwarilal Purohit lands in soup for touching female journalist’s cheek
Tamil Nadu governor Banwarilal Purohit landed in soup for touching a female journalist’s cheek. Many senior scribes and politicians have expressed angst against governor’s action; though no reaction has come from the governor so far over the same.
The incident took place after Purohit had called a press conference over a tape related to female assistant professor. In this tape, female professor was seeking sexual favours from students against good marks.
During this press briefing, when a female journalist sought a question from Governor Purohit, he instead of answering, touched her cheek and walked away. The female reporter stated this action as inappropriate and opposed it.
The journalist took to twitter and said “I asked a question from Tamil Nadu Chief Minister during a press conference and he touched my cheek without my consent”.
