37% rural youth sans Internet access: Study
Despite their obvious attempts to activate communal fault lines on various social media platforms, hardcore Hindutva right-wingers are not known to back up their verbal attacks with physical assault. In that sense, Bajrang Dal activist Bhuvith Shetty, the 24-year-old face behind the Twitter handle @garudapurana, is an exception — he has been vicious online and offline.
Educated and argumentative, Shetty, who hails from Bantwal in the Dakshina Kannada district in coastal Karnataka, first hit the headlines when he was arrested on August 31 for a tweet linked to the murder of Kannada scholar M M Kalburgi.
