Police reported that the person responsible was a vagrant, and that the act was not intentional. According to the police, he was hungry and while searching for food accidentally disturbed the prasad, causing damage to the idol. However, BJP leaders have demanded a detailed investigation. The second incident, which triggered widespread protests, was the vandalism of the Muthyalamma temple in Mandal division of Secunderabad. Several BJP leaders, including Union minister and Telangana BJP president G Kishan Reddy, visited the temple complex and condemned the incident.
