With a reputation for being a vocal proponent of his party’s ideology, Nettaru was known for his charismatic personality and tireless efforts to mobilize support for the BJP’s agenda.

On the fateful day, Praveen Nettaru had reportedly been brutally attacked by a group of people, leading to his untimely demise. The news sent shockwaves throughout the district, sparking widespread outrage and demands for justice.

In the immediate aftermath of the crime, law enforcement agencies launched a full-scale investigation. Later the case was handed to the NIA.

Though the NIA has arrested a couple of people in connection with the case, some of the main accused in the case are still at large and the case has proved to be an uphill battle for the authorities.
