In the recent communal attack in Ramanagara, the main accused is the Hindutva activist Puneeth Kerehalli, who has links to many BJP leaders, including CN Ashwath Narayan, the current Higher


Education Minister in Karnataka and one of the party’s most recognisable leaders from the Vokkaliga caste group. Even though Puneeth was booked by the police, he is yet to be arrested more


than three days after the attack. BJP leaders in the state have been inconspicuous in addressing the attack and the party’s links to Puneeth, who has been seen in photos with many BJP


leaders in Bengaluru.
