A man attempted suicide outside the residence of former Karnataka Chief Minister and current Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy after being denied a meeting with him. The man, identified as Mahadev, reportedly cut his hand with a blade following an altercation with the security personnel at Kumaraswamy's JP Nagar residence.  

The incident took place on January 12 around 3:30 PM when Mahadev, who was allegedly under the influence of alcohol, arrived at the minister's residence. Claiming to be a loyal supporter of Kumaraswamy, whom he referred to as "Kumaranna," Mahadev insisted on meeting him immediately. However, the security guard stationed at the residence turned him away, citing his inebriated state and disruptive behaviour. The guard advised him to return the next day.

Later that evening, at around 6 PM, Mahadev returned to the minister's house and again demanded to meet Kumaraswamy. Despite repeated refusals, he persisted, insisting he had an urgent matter to discuss. When the security personnel denied him entry again, Mahadev reportedly became agitated, saying he would teach them a lesson. In a fit of rage, he pulled out a blade from his pocket and slashed his hand.  

The security personnel immediately rushed Mahadev, who was bleeding profusely, to a nearby government hospital for treatment. After receiving initial medical care, he was transferred to Victoria Hospital for further treatment.

Following the incident, a complaint was lodged against Mahadev at the JP Nagar police station by Venkatachalapathy, a police security guard deployed at Kumaraswamy’s residence. The FIR accuses Mahadev of creating a public nuisance and behaving inappropriately outside the minister's house.  

The police are investigating the case to ascertain the reasons behind Mahadev's extreme step. Meanwhile, the incident has sparked concern over the security and mental health challenges posed by such incidents.
