Coimbatore: A distressing scene unfolded in Dharapuram, Tirupur district, where a woman, caught in the throes of a family dispute, caused a major stir on Pollachi Road near Amravathi Roundana. Identified as Jothika, aged 25 from Thoothukudi, she stopped vehicles, directed traffic, and even saluted the drivers provocatively. This odd behavior was reportedly due to a marital discord.
