The Dharamsthala case in Karnataka has already fuelled political fire in the country. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday organised a massive rally in Dharmasthala. The party demanded a Central agency probe into the allegations of multiple murders, rapes, and burials in the temple town, PTI reported.

According to the BJP, nearly one lakh people from across Karnataka took part in the demonstration. The rally was held to show solidarity against what the party termed an "attempt to vilify the temple and its traditions".

The 'Dharmasthala Chalo' rally was joined by prominent leaders such as Union Minister Pralhad Joshi, former Chief Minister Sadananda Gowda, Leader of Opposition in the Assembly R Ashoka, BJP state president B Y Vijayendra, MPs, and others.
