Some pro-Marathi activists vandalised a KSRTC bus in Dhound village in Maharashtra in protest against Karnataka laying claim over Jat taluk and some other areas in Maharashtra.
The protestors wrote anti-Karnataka graffiti on the Athani-bound bus, and raised slogans accusing Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai of making false claims about the presence of a large number of Kannada-speaking people in Jat and other areas.
Neither the KSRTC staff nor passengers were hurt in the incident, Belagavi police said.
CM demands action against culprits
Mr. Bommai demanded that the Maharashtra Government initiate action against the vandals, and protect KSRTC buses.
