Karnataka MLC Seeks Special Legislative Session on Backward Classes Survey Report
Karnataka Congress MLC B.S. Shivanna has urged the state government to hold a special legislative session to discuss the socio-educational survey report by the Karnataka State Commission for Backward Classes (KSCBC). The report, submitted before former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's resignation, has yet to be reviewed by the Cabinet. Shivanna emphasized the significant expenditure on the survey and called for transparency and implementation of its recommendations. The government has cited a High Court stay on publicizing the report, with a hearing scheduled for September 25.
