Jain community student from Kalaburagi missing for fortnight, Hindu groups allege love jihad

KALABURAGI: Hindu groups have alleged love jihad after a girl from the Jain community went missing since July 30. She had gone to college to write her BSc exam, but did not return home.

The missing student is the daughter of Mahaveer Jain, a resident of Gobbur village and was studying in a private college in Kalaburagi. It is said that she was regularly texting Mashaq, a resident of the same vilalge.

On coming to know of this, the parents stopped sending her to college and had sent her only to write the exams. The family now suspects that she may have eloped with the Muslim youth and has lodged a complaint with the Gulbarga University police station.
