The YouTubers, identified as Ajay Anchan of Kudla Rampage, Abhishek of United Media, Vijay of Sanchari Studio, and a cameraman, sustained injuries, with one reported to be in critical condition. The incident has led to heightened tensions, prompting police to deploy additional security in Dharmasthala.
