- On Tuesday, authorities registered an FIR against Aishwarya, daughter of Tumakuru Rural BJP MLA Suresh Gowda, following a physical altercation with Police Sub-Inspector Savitha B Patil at the Aarti Ukkada Temple in Srirangapatna.
- The incident occurred on August 12 during Bhima Amavasya celebrations when Savitha blocked Aishwarya from entering the temple's sanctum sanctorum due to crowd control. Aishwarya allegedly questioned why Circle Inspector Lakshmi received entry while she was asked to wait.
