Moodushedde: Video of daughter brutally assaulting mother goes viral
Mangaluru: A shocking video of a daughter brutally assaulting her mother at the Moodushedde Gram Panchayat premises on the outskirts of the city has gone viral, triggering widespread outrage on social media.
The mother and daughter reside in Shivanagara, Moodushedde, and were reportedly involved in frequent quarrels. The mother had filed complaints earlier at Kavoor police station, following which the police had counselled both and sent them back home, sources said.
Recently, the mother approached the Moodushedde Gram Panchayat to lodge a complaint against her daughter. According to reports, while she was submitting the complaint three days ago, the daughter pushed her. Although the mother retaliated, the daughter became enraged and assaulted her mother in an inhumane manner using a slipper. The incident was recorded on a mobile phone by individuals present in the Gram Panchayat office and the video has since spread widely across social media platforms, drawing anger from the public.
Several elected representatives and staff members of the Gram Panchayat are seen in the video. Social media users have criticized them for merely filming the incident instead of intervening to stop the assault or reporting the matter to the police. Critics say that the police should have called both parties for inquiry and taken suo motu action for the public assault.
As of now, no case has been registered regarding the altercation between the mother and daughter. The Mangaluru City Police Commissioner has stated that strict legal action will be taken if anyone files a complaint against the person who recorded and circulated the video with the intention of making it viral for higher views.

Pak, Afghan forces trade fire along Chaman border: Report
Islamabad (PTI): A heavy exchange of fire between Pakistani and Afghan forces was reported from the key Chaman border, according to a media report on Saturday.
Injuries were reported from the district hospital, but no fatalities occurred, the Dawn newspaper reported.
Officials from both sides accused each other of instigating the flare-up late on Friday night across the border in the Balochistan province.
While Pakistani officials said that Afghan forces had fired mortar shells on the Badani area, Afghan Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid claimed it was Pakistan that launched an attack on Spin Boldak, alleging that their forces were responding.
Pakistan's official sources told Dawn that Pakistani forces retaliated against the Afghan aggression and returned fire.
There were also reports of fighting on the Chaman-Kandahar highway, but these could not be immediately verified.
A senior official in Quetta confirmed on condition of anonymity that the exchange of fire started around 10 pm and continued until late at night.
The medical superintendent of Chaman district hospital said that three injured, including a woman, were brought to the medical facility.
There was neither any official word from the Inter-Services Public Relations -- Pakistan Army's media wing -- nor from the Foreign Office.
The Chaman border crossing, also known as Friendship Gate, connects Balochistan province to Afghanistan’s Kandahar.
Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan have deteriorated amidst regular allegations by Pakistan regarding the failure of the Afghan regime to deny safe havens to Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan terrorists.
The two countries had agreed on a ceasefire following tensions last month, but the Foreign Office said last month that technically there was no truce as it was contingent on the Afghan Taliban stopping terrorist attacks in Pakistan, which they had failed to do.
