BENGALURU: The Karnataka cabinet on Thursday formally announced the decision to carry out a fresh caste-based socio-educational survey across the state within a 90-day timeline, scrapping the earlier 2015 exercise and its subsequent 2024 report.

Chief minister Siddaramaiah announced the move after a special cabinet meeting in Bengaluru.

"We have taken a decision in the cabinet. It was a unanimous decision that a new survey is to be conducted," he said.

The government will consult the Karnataka State Backward Classes Commission (KSBCC), which will oversee the survey and submit its report within the stipulated time.

Siddaramaiah said, "The government will consult the Karnataka State Backward Classes Commission ... we are going to give 90 days' time to survey afresh and to give the report."
