The viral clip shows a woman pushing and hitting the policeman with her slipper in front of a crowd of people. The cop is seen raising his hand in self-defence while the woman continues to hit him. He was seen walking away at the end.
After the video was rapidly circulated on social media platforms, an official case was registered to investigate the incident.
Poonam Mishra, a senior traffic police official in a statement posted on X said that the woman behaved in an unruly manner and said she is known for her aggressive conduct.
