The police said Hegde’s tweet was aimed at inciting religious conflict between two communities and to showcase Karnataka in a poor light in maintaining law and order. The Jain monk was on his way to Kanakagiri from Nanjangud, near Mysuru, on March 11 when the accident took place. A motorist had rammed into the monk and others near Kavalande village, leaving him with injuries on his right arm and forehead.
