The complaint, filed by PSI Srinivas of Madanayakanahalli Police Station on October 5, records that an individual named Karthik Venkatesh shared a video on his X account the previous night. The video allegedly showed Ashok, a Jomato employee near Makali, making derogatory remarks about Kannada-speaking workers.
