Bajrang Dal activists began a protest in front of the government PUC college in Indi in Vijayapura district after authorities stopped a male student who had applied sindhur (vermilion).
The boy was asked to remove the sindhur before entering the college. When he refused, he was told to go back home.
When news of the incident spread, some Bajrang Dal activists gathered outside the college and shouted slogans against the college and teachers.
