IndiaTimes Friday, 18 April 2025
Karnataka's cabinet meeting on the contentious caste census concluded without a resolution, postponing further discussions to May 2 amidst pressure from Vokkaliga and Veerashaiva-Lingayat communities. The government has not taken a conclusive stand due to concerns about the survey's scientific validity. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has requested ministers to submit written opinions before the next meeting.
