Delay in making caste census public questioned in Legislative Council

The Hindu  

The delay in making public the report on the social and economic survey of 2015, popularly called the caste census, was questioned in the Legislative Council on Friday. Nanjundi Vishwakarma sought to know from the government the reasons for not disclosing the report on the caste census, which had been conducted by the Karnataka State Backward Classes Commission in 2015 after spending ₹162 crore. Replying to the question, Minister for Social Welfare and Backward Classes Kota Srinivas Poojary said the report of the caste census did not bear the signature of the then Member-Secretary of the State Backward Classes’ Commission. He sought to know if the reluctance to make the report public was to avert the possibility of Backward Classes communities bringing pressure on the government for reservation on basis of their population as per the census.
