About a month and a half before the attack on Madhu, a mob of Muslims stabbed Hindu activist Harsha to spread communal tension in the area. Harsha was stabbed to death by a mob of Muslim youths on the night of February 20 near the Kamat petrol pump in the Shivamogga district of Karnataka. Harsha was a resident of Sigehatti and worked as a tailor. Harsha belonged to the Hindu outfit Bajrang Dal and was seen wearing a saffron shawl during a demonstration in support of school-college uniforms. One of his friends had said that Harsha had been the target of these people for a few weeks and his murder was a "well-planned conspiracy." He was also threatened in 2015 by fundamentalists over a post of social media 'blasphemy.' There was a massive protest in the district after the brutal killing of Bajrang Dal activist Harsha. Due to this, the government imposed a curfew in the district and closed down all educational institutions.
