It appeared like a power slap contest. The match played out between a cop and a BJP leader in Karnataka.<\/p>\n

The slapping match, the video of which is now in wide circulation, was reported from Chitradurga, nearly 270 km from capital Bengaluru.<\/p>\n

A group had gathered on Durgada Siri Hotel Road around midnight on Friday. Sub Inspector Gadilinga Gowdar instructed them to disperse and go home.<\/p>\n

Enraged by this, Madhugiri BJP District President Hanumanta Gowda allegedly abused the cop.<\/p>\n

Triggered, the cop threw in a slap. And soon a fight ensued, shows the video. The BJP leader, thrown off balance, hits back. The cop can be seen charging back as a man tries to come in between to stop the fight.<\/p>\n

Counter-complainants have been registered from both sides.<\/p>\n
