Hubli has hit the headlines again in a negative context. Earlier, clashes over the disputed Idgah Maidan in the centre of town left several dead and the area is considered communally sensitive. But the city has not seen that level of violence for years now and its recent association with suspected terrorists has come as a shock.''This is very sad. If terrorist activity is going on in a place like Hubli we are very upset to hear of it,'' said Raju, Hubli resident.
