During the meeting, Union Minister Pralhad Joshi was also present.

Addressing a rally in Hubballi city, Amit Shah said, "On April 18, Neha Hiremath was murdered. Whose responsibility was it? They (Congress) are claiming it to be a case involving personal matters. You won't protect the girls who go to educational campuses? Will they be killed? If you are not capable, leave the seat of power. We will ensure security in Karnataka."

"They did not provide security to girls and women in Karnataka," he noted, as per a report on IANS.
