The police have launched a manhunt for Kodam Pranay Kumar, a resident of Tangallapalli in the Siricilla district, for allegedly endorsing the unlawful killing of the national bird.
"A case has been registered under concerned law and strictest action would be taken against him and anyone else doing such activities," Akhil Mahajan, SP Rajanna Siricilla district, wrote on X.
"He (Kumar) will be sent to remand as well," he added in a separate post.
Despite the removal of the video, animal rights activists are demanding stringent measures against Kumar.
