Summary:

Kanakadurga had been in hiding for the last two weeks after the darshan of Lord Ayyappa at the Sabarimala shrine due to security reasons. Kanakadurga, 44, one of the two women who had entered the Sabarimala temple in Kerala defying tradition earlier this month, was rushed to a hospital after being thrashed by her mother-in-law following an altercation on the issue. Kanakadurga alleged that her mother-in-law allegedly beat her up with a wooden plank and she was taken to the hospital. "My mother-in-law beat me up severely with the wooden plank," Kanakadurga told TV channels from the hospital. Reports also suggest her mother-in-law also got admitted to the hospital later alleging that Kanakadurga had assaulted her..
