While Vaiko hit out at Modi for continuously "betraying" the interests of Tamil Nadu, a woman, believed to be a BJP office-bearer, sneaked into the protest venue, raised slogans and posed a question to him.

Vaiko, who was addressing the cadres from an open truck, asked them to maintain calm and police whisked her away even as frenzied party cadres holding black flags tried to gherao her.

The MDMK chief targeted Modi for allegedly betraying Tamil Nadu on lifeline issues, including the Cauvery and for not visiting the State immediately after cyclone Gaja last November.

Vaiko had held a similar protest demonstration against Modi on January 27 when he visited Madurai to lay the foundation stone for the AIIMS hospital.
