"I was explaining to him that I was present and had gone to another point when he had come to the duty point, but he got angry and yelled at me. He went to the extent of abusing me and using vulgar language," she told mid-day, adding that she then gave a complaint to Joint Commissioner of Police (traffic) Amitesh Kumar, seeking action against Ubale.

In defence
Ubale said he hadn't meant to lose his temper. "The constable and her colleague were not at the duty point. I had to do their job and clear a traffic jam. Hence, I got angry, but I didn't abuse her. I just yelled at her… But she recorded it and circulated it. And, as a result, I have been transferred to the main control room," he added.
