- DEVARAJ B HIREHALLI @ BENGALURU:

WHEN the Karnataka cabinet meets on Friday, it is likely to discuss enhancement of the backward classes quota from 32 per cent to 51 per cent, one of the key recommendations of the Karnataka State Backward Classes Commission headed by Jayaprakash Hedge. The commission had submitted the report, including recommendations based on the Socio-Economic and Educational Survey-2015 (SES-2015), to the government.

Friday's meeting will not exclusively discuss the SES-2015, which is one of the subjects on the agenda. The cabinet may agree on enhancement of quota, with an argument that there are no legal hurdles, and lob the ball into the Centre's court for its approval.
