Those opposed to egalitarian society making false claims: CM
The Free Press Journal - Indore
|October 07, 2025
Defending his government's social and educational survey — widely referred to as the "caste census" — Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday said those opposing the creation of an egalitarian society are making "misleading statements” about it.
The CM also clarified that he has no stand regarding the demand for a separate religious status by the Lingayat community.
He said any decision on extending the caste survey's deadline will be taken after assessing the coverage achieved by Tuesday evening.
