A forty-eight-year-old man was arrested by the Karnataka Police for allegedly issuing a death threat to the state's Home Minister on social media. The accused reportedly called the minister a beggar and threatened to eliminate him. Following the arrest, the Home Minister alleged that the accused is linked to a prominent right-wing organisation and demanded accountability regarding their funds, comparing their donations to those received by temples.
This sparked a massive political slugfest, with the opposition party hitting back, questioning the minister's language and raising concerns about the safety of citizens in the state. A cabinet colleague defended the Home Minister, stating that such threats would not deter him from his duties. The incident has intensified the political showdown in Karnataka, with the Home Minister asserting that strict action will be taken within the ambit of the law and hinting at new regulations to fix accountability.
