Communal tensions have escalated in Karnataka, particularly in Chitradurga, Davanagere, and Kolar, following the waving of Palestinian flags during Milad-ul-Nabi processions. Authorities arrested six individuals in Mangaluru for throwing stones at a mosque, while additional arrests were made in Bantwal for related disturbances. The BJP has called for a National Investigation Agency probe into these incidents, suspecting involvement from sleeper cells of terror groups. In Davanagere, unrest arose over the placement of flags near a police station, leading to an FIR against eight individuals. Meanwhile, tensions in Chikkamagaluru were sparked by motorcyclists waving Palestinian flags, prompting a police response to maintain order ahead of Ganesh festivities. Across the state, the situation remains volatile as authorities work to prevent further conflicts.
