woman jumps onto Indian politician's car and smashes the windscreen because his bodyguard WINKED at her.

A woman flew into an uncontrollable rage after being winked at by a politician's bodyguard, jumping onto his car and smashing the windscreen with his party's flag.

Dramatic video shows the 23-year-old climbing onto the party leader's Mercedes at a set of traffic lights, bringing the road to a standstill as crowds gathered to watch her outburst.

Standing on the bonnet, she plucks the flag from the car and repeatedly hammers it into the windscreen until it cracks while demanding they respond to her allegations of sexual harassment.

Footage of the confrontation has been widely shared on social media, with many praising her for challenging the men. 

The row erupted when the woman claimed the bodyguard winked at her as she pulled up on her scooter alongside the politician's convoy at a set of traffic lights in Agra, India, on Sunday.

After leaping onto the car, she demanded the politician, Abhinav Sharma, and his security guard leave the vehicle and face up to her.

Eventually, with Mr Sharma remaining inside the car, some of his guards confronted the woman.

Witnesses said one of the men snatched her mobile phone while she was taking pictures of the guard and smashed it on the ground, enraging her further, it was reported by The Times of India. 

Police arrived at the scene a short time later to disperse the crowd, but the woman refused to move until she had been compensated for damaged phone.

After an hour-long row, the matter was finally settled when the woman, who is said to work in a government bank, was paid 6,500 Indian rupees (£65) for her cracked handset.

Mr Sharma, who runs a school in the city, has refused to apologise for the alleged sexual harassment, insisting his bodyguard did not wink at her.

He suggested his car may have brushed against the woman's scooter, which provoked her anger.
