Hubballi, Jun 12: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has said that the ‘Karnataka bandh’ called by various organisations on Monday will not be successful.

Speaking to media persons here on Sunday, the chief minister said that the state government had taken adequate precautions to ensure that normal life is not disrupted due to the bandh.

Condemning the statement of BJP National President Amit Shah describing Mahatma Gandhi ‘chatur baniya,’ the chief minister said that the remarks were an insult to the entire nation.

Siddaramaiah said that the Opposition parties should come up with documentary evidence to substantiate their land grab charges against Robert Vadra, the son-in-law of All India Congress Committee president, Sonia Gandhi.

December 15,2025

Mangaluru police have arrested a 27-year-old NRI on his return from Saudi Arabia in connection with an Instagram post allegedly containing derogatory and provocative remarks about the Hindu religion, officials said on Monday.

The accused, Abdul Khader Nehad, a resident of Ulaibettu in Mangaluru, was working in Saudi Arabia when the post was uploaded, police said.

A suo motu case was registered at the Bajpe police station on October 11 after an allegedly offensive post circulated from the Instagram account ‘team_sdpi_2025’. Police said the content was flagged for being provocative and derogatory in nature.

During the investigation, technical analysis traced the Instagram post to Nehad, who was residing abroad at the time, a senior police officer said. Based on these findings, a Look Out Circular (LOC) was issued against him.

On December 14, Nehad arrived from Saudi Arabia at Calicut International Airport in Kerala, where he was taken into custody on arrival. Police said further investigation is underway.
