Siddaramaiah leaves caste census out of budget, sets tongues wagging

Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah omitted the Socio-Economic Survey from the 2025-26 budget, sparking speculation that the caste census could be shelved. The report, facing opposition from dominant caste leaders within Congress, might be withheld or revised once updated population data is available. Some Congress leaders, like BK Hariprasad, affirm the report’s eventual release.
