Chief Minister Siddaramaiah assured stringent action against the perpetrators, emphasizing the government's commitment to justice.

The Chief Minister, via a microblogging site, deemed the incident in Belagavi as inhumane, “A woman was stripped naked, tied to a pole and assaulted in Belgaum is extremely inhumane. This has made the whole society dizzy. Our government will not tolerate such heinous acts for any reason.”
