Tamilisai Soundararajan
, the Tamilnadu BJP leader, had been traveling from Chennai to Thoothukudi to take part in a program in Coutralam. During the flight journey, a middle-aged woman named Sophia shouted against Tamilisai and stated that BJP rule is a Fascism rule. But, Tamilisai said that she didn't speak anything in the flight and even in the airport due to security reasons. While Tamilisai was in the lobby, the lady is said to have been staring at her and Tamilisai had asked her why she did shout at the flight. The lady had said that it is her freedom to express and she could speak whatever she thinks. The airport authorities found it hard to control the word fight between Tamilisai and Sophia. Tamilisai met the press at Thoothukudi airport and said that she feels that some movements might be operating behind Sophia.
