"It is totally untrue. I am telling this since my name has come up in a section of the media in connection with the incident," 73-year-old Kurup, representing Kollam in the Lok Sabha, told the media here.

Shweta had yesterday complained, without naming her tormentor, that she was physically humiliated at the venue of the President's Trophy boat race function here last evening. Media footage showed Kurup touching her after which the MP issued the statement.
