CHENNAI: A video showing several political functionaries flinging chairs at one another in what appears to be a large conference hall has gone viral. Users alleged that the footage is from a BJP meeting in Tamil Nadu.

Not sure about 400 seats, but definitely 400 chairs were flung, said one user.

AltNews found that the video was not from a BJP meeting.

The clash broke out among audiences at a debate in Kanchipuram, where representatives from ruling and opposition political parties were invited.
