Chandigarh, September 4

A video of a teenage boy kicking and slapping his mother has been doing the rounds on social media.

In the video posted by a Twitter user ‘@nach1keta’, the boy can be seen throwing tantrums and yelling outside his house.

He slaps an elderly woman, apparently his mother, sitting on a raised platform outside the house. Another woman comes in between them to calm the situation but the boy throws slippers at her.

He later goes on to kick the elderly woman and slam doors and windows in fit of rage.

The caption of the video read: “Once, highest consumer of liquor, Kerala has now become the Drug Capital of India. All sorts of natural and synthetic drugs are easily available in Kerala and a huge population of youth are addicted to that. #Shocking video of a boy fighting with his mother for money to buy drugs!”

Doesn't seem he can afford expensive drugs, might be 'kanjav', which is easily available in most of the area around bus stands.
