In her letter, Kavitha firstly clarified that she was called to the park by the guards after they failed to stop Samyuktha and her friends from playing music and dancing. Kavitha also revealed that she only lost her cool and went on to slap Samyuktha's friend after she called her (Kavitha) a "Bloody bitch."

Kavitha revealed that it was when Samyuktha "herself took off her top and a live video" that the people present there objected to the move. She also clarified once and for all that She was there in the capacity of a local resident and that her presence had nothing to do wit Indian National Congress. Well, if netizens comments under her post are anything to go by, looks like no one is buying her side of the story.
