These profiles are accused of posting defamatory content in the name of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar in what the group condemns as a deliberate attempt to vilify the Dalit icon, target a community, and sow hatred and disorder within society.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">&#8220;\u0cb8\u0cbe\u0cae\u0cbe\u0c9c\u0cbf\u0c95 \u0c9c\u0cbe\u0cb2\u0ca4\u0cbe\u0ca3\u0ca6\u0cb2\u0ccd\u0cb2\u0cbf \u0c85\u0c82\u0cac\u0cc7\u0ca1\u0ccd\u0c95\u0cb0\u0ccd \u0cb9\u0cc6\u0cb8\u0cb0\u0cbf\u0ca8 \u0ca6\u0ccd\u0cb5\u0cc7\u0cb7 \u0caa\u0ccd\u0cb0\u0c9a\u0cbe\u0cb0; \u0caa\u0cca\u0cb2\u0cc0\u0cb8\u0cb0\u0cbf\u0c97\u0cc6 \u0cae\u0ca8\u0cb5\u0cbf<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>The Alleged Campaign<\/strong><br \/>\nAccording to the complaint, the fake accounts\u2014using inflammatory names and pseudonyms\u2014have been employed to post abusive language, defamatory writings, and provocative videos. The stated objective of this activity, as per the complainants, is to create unrest and disturb social harmony. The group has labeled these actions as &#8220;unconstitutional&#8221; and a serious threat to public peace, demanding the swift identification and arrest of those responsible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Official Condemnation and Demands<\/strong><br \/>\nSpeaking on the issue, Pavithra G, State President of the Dalita Sena Women&#8217;s Wing, issued a strong condemnation. She emphasized the gravity of misusing Dr. Ambedkar&#8217;s legacy to foster enmity between communities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">&#8220;This is a serious crime. Misusing Dr. Ambedkar&#8217;s name to create discord between communities is a severe offence. These anti-social elements must be taught a stern lesson through the law,&#8221; Pavithra G stated. &#8220;It is the duty of the police department to curb the misuse of social media platforms, and immediate action must be taken in this case.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">The complaint was formally submitted to the Director General of Police and the Police Inspector General.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Broader Concerns and Unanswered Questions<\/strong><br \/>\nThe incident raises significant concerns about the weaponization of social media to attack revered figures and destabilize social cohesion. It highlights the ongoing challenges law enforcement faces in policing anonymous online hate speech and coordinated disinformation campaigns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Key questions remain: Who is behind this network of profiles, and what is their ultimate motive? How effectively can existing cyber laws tackle such organized, malicious activity? Furthermore, this case underscores the persistent exploitation of caste fault lines for nefarious purposes, demanding a robust institutional response.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">The complaint filing was attended by Prakash Hosamani, District Social Media President for Vijayapura district, and Mahesh Jabanur, President for North Karnataka, underscoring the organization&#8217;s concern across regions. Police authorities have yet to issue a public statement regarding the investigation.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ds-theme\">\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Key Quotes<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>For Attribution:<\/strong>\u00a0&#8220;Misusing Dr. Ambedkar&#8217;s name to create discord between communities is a severe offence.
