BJP Yuva Morcha Kalaburagi rural president Parashuram Nasalwaye and the former minister Revu Naik Belamagi, who led the protest, said that all the 175 cases were against the cadres of the Popular Front of India (PFI) and Karnataka Forum for Dignity (KFD).

“The State government has taken the decision without taking the opinion of the Home Ministry and police departments in the districts concerned,” they said.
