As hundreds of Congress workers, carrying placards and flags reached the gate of society where Subramanian Swamy resides, police closed the entry points following which the protesters clashed with them.

Police had put barricades at about 50 metres from Swamy's house. Police dispersed the agitators using mild force.

“Today, all Congressmen came out on street to show their resentment against Swamy's comments. We would not tolerate such statements,” Yusuf said.
