Hubli , also called Hubballi, ( ) is a major city in the state of Karnataka of India. The name Hubballi literally means "flowering creeper" in Kannada. The twin cities of Hubli and Dharwad, collectively referred to as "Hubli-Dharwad", is the second-largest conurbation in Karnataka after Bangalore. While Dharwad is the administrative headquarters, the city of Hubli, situated about 20 km south-east of Dharwad, is the commercial centre and business hub of North Karnataka. Crops like Cotton and peanuts are grown aplenty in the surrounding rural areas, and Hubli is a major trading center for both commodities. It is also an important city for the Indian Railways, being the headquarters for South Western Railway Zone and the Hubli Railway Division.

Pramod Muthalik of the Sri Ram Sene and Lt Col Purohit, the accused in the Malegaon blast case - both these men have shocked the entire nation in the recent past. While Lt Col Prasad Purohit has been dubbed as the master of Hindu terrorism by the media, Pramod Muthalik himself claims that he has formed a Hindu suicide squad to take on Islamist jihadis. Both have a common agenda and share the same ideology. But, do they have any link? Was there any connection between Malegaon blasts and the failed blasts at Hubli?

"My younger brother (Nagraj Jambagi) is with the Sri Rama Sene. He was the right hand man of Pramod Muthalik. Muthalik may deny it, but we have seen Muthalik's photo and video on TV and in newspapers. We know who this Muthalik is.

The over 4000-page chargesheet filed by the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) also raises serious questions over a possible link between Mangalore's moral police and Malegaon's monsters. An ATS team had even visited Karnataka looking for a suspect called Praveen Muthalik, supposedly a relative of Pramod Muthalik. Pramod Muthalik has very close links with Hindu fundamentalist organisations in <b>...</b>
