In March 2020, Prof. Ganeshiah was set to give a talk at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore titled 'Polygamy, Sexual Selection and Terrorism’, which argued in its abstract that polygamy and female foeticide created mate-deprived “bare branches” men, making them vulnerable to take up crime, terrorism and militancy.

There was a strong objection by the students and citizens to the "Islamophobic and sexist" rhetoric in the abstract.

Prof. Ganeshiah argued that the talk was based on research by Valerie M. Hudson and Andrea den Boer in their book Bare Branches: The Security Implications of Asia's Surplus Male Population published by the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs.

Prof Ganeshiah extends the argument in the book by stating that polygamy is also a contributing factor to the claims made in the research by the Hudson and den Boer and that polygamy is not limited to Islam alone[2]
