Sculptor Arun Yogiraj, who carved Ram Lalla idol, has been denied US visa to attend a three-day conference in Virginia. He was reportedly scheduled to attend the 12th AKKA World Kannada Conference (WKC 2024), set to take place from August 30 to September 1. "I don't know...why it was denied, but we've submitted all...documents related to the visa," Yogiraj said.
