A group of writers has called it an attack on freedom of expression
The Mandya police have summoned and questioned writer Hampa Nagarajaiah, 86, popularly known as Hampana, over the critical remarks he made about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s handling of the farmers’ protests. The police were acting on a complaint lodged by an RSS activist.

Dr. Nagarajaiah, inaugurating the Taluk Sahitya Sammelana in Mandya on January 17, had criticised the PM on the handling of the farmers’ protest at the Delhi border.
