BJP MLAs made provocative statements after a 17-year-old student, Digant, went missing in Farangipet. Speaker U.T. Khader advised those offended to file police complaints instead of expecting police to act on their own. Digant was found in Udupi on March 8, ten days after he disappeared. Khader emphasized community unity and discouraged escalating tensions through protests against elected officials. In response, Communist Party leader Muneer Katipalla accused Khader of supporting communal forces and undermining those opposing them. Khader's comments have sparked further debate on the issue.
