Members of Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Bajrang Dal and other right wing organisations took out a protest march in Kalaburagi on Wednesday demanding in enquiry by National Investigation Agency (NIA) in the brutal murder of right wing activist Harsha in Shivamogga on Sunday.

Holding aloft saffron flags, the agitators took out the march from Super Market to Jagat Circle and raised slogans praising Harsha.
