Karnataka's Siddaramaiah launches real-time 'CM Dashboard' for development monitoring
The 'Chief Minister's Dashboard' (CM Dashboard), a platform that provides real-time, integrated insights into key development indicators across Karnataka was launched on Friday.
It was launched by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah during the review meeting with Deputy Commissioners of all districts and CEOs of all Zilla Panchayats at Vidhana Soudha, the seat of the state legislature and secretariat here.
The dashboard, developed in-house by the Centre for e-Governance (CeG), is now functionally complete and hosted under the domain cmdashboard.karnataka.gov.in. This platform provides real-time, integrated insights into key development indicators across Karnataka, enabling data-driven governance and decision-making at the highest level, an official release said. The dashboard is built using a microservices-based architecture, ensuring scalability and ease of integration, and the data is integrated via APIs (Application Programming Interface) from various departments, eliminating manual entry.
According to officials, the dashboard categorises state performance data into four primary sectors: Economic Growth (e.g., investments, beneficiaries), Legal/Judiciary Management (e.g., RTI, Sakala case disposals), Infrastructure Development (e.g., roads, irrigation, renewable energy), and Citizen-Centric Governance (e.g., Guarantee Schemes, Janaspandana).
Designed to promote transparency, the portal displays real-time progress metrics and enables public access to key schemes and service outcomes, they said.

Internal quota report to be presented before cabinet, but implementation may take a while
Bengaluru: The Justice HN Nagamohan Das commission's report on internal reservation among Scheduled Castes (SCs) is expected to be formally placed before the cabinet on Thursday, but a final decision on its implementation is likely to be deferred amid growing dissent within Dalit communities. The report, which was submitted to chief minister Siddaramaiah Monday, has stirred discontent even before being made public. Communities from the Right sect — including Holeya, Lambani, and Bhovi — have opposed their alleged reclassification and reduced quantum of reservation. Groups from the Left sect, notably Madigas, are demanding immediate implementation of the report. Sources say the cabinet will take time to examine the politically sensitive report. Ministers are expected to study the document and share their views at a later meeting, like how the govt handled the caste census report. "The final call will be taken only after ministers give their views," said a minister.

A delegation of Lambani and Banjara representatives, led by deputy speaker Rudrappa Lamani, met Siddaramaiah Wednesday to express their objections. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Online & Flexible degrees BITS Pilani Digital Apply Now "There are some genuine concerns about the report, although the cabinet is yet to accept and release it for public consumption," said former Congress MLC Prakash Rathod, who was part of the delegation. "The commission is said to have reclassified some castes as touchable and untouchable and the move amounts to division of Dalits, which is against the Constitution. We have brought these issues to CM's notice." They even urged the CM to defer placing the report before the cabinet on Thursday but ministers from the Left sect urged the CM to accept the report. While it has not been included in the cabinet agenda, they said the matter would definitely be taken up in the meeting. The commission has reportedly proposed a redistribution of the 17% Scheduled Caste quota into five categories. 6% for Left sect, 5% for Right, 4% for Banjara-Bhovi-Koracha-Korama groups, and the remaining 2% divided among smaller castes and Adi Karnataka/Andhra/Dravida groups. Compared to the JC Madhuswamy committee report from the previous BJP govt, the changes are marginal. But Right sect quota is said to be reduced from 5.5% to 5%, and the share for touchable groups from 4.5% to 4%. Social welfare minister HC Mahadevappa, who will present the report, himself belongs to the Right sect. Many from his community recently met at home minister G Parameshwara's residence and resolved to defend their share. "It is most important that we ensure unity in the community," Parameshwara said. "Any discordant note will lead to further delay in providing social justice to deserving castes. The cabinet will deliberate and implement recommendations only thorough discussion." The delay has drawn criticism from BJP. Party MP Govind Karjol, from the Left sect, accused the govt of wasting Rs 150 crore on the commission and said the JC Madhuswamy report could have sufficed. Responding to criticism, Justice Das said: "If some people have grievances about the report, they are free to approach court. Also, it is up to the govt to accept or reject the report."

Fighting hate and other poisons
The Karnataka government has issued a 25-point Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) in response to two alarming cases of water poisoning in government schools, one in Belagavi and another in Shivamogga. While both incidents raise grave concerns about child safety, the Belagavi incident is particularly sinister. Here, several students were hospitalised after a drinking water tank was poisoned in a communal plot to malign the school's Muslim headmaster and engineer his transfer. The three accused, including Sri Ram Sene leader Sagar Patil, have been remanded to judicial fact that children were targeted to further a hate-driven agenda exposes the grotesque extremes of religious fundamentalism. That the perpetrators believed they could act with such brazenness speaks of a deeper malaise: the normalisation of bigotry in politics. It is indeed concerning that when political ideologies turn into blind hatred, even innocent children are not spared. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has rightly questioned if Sri Ram Sene chief Pramod Muthalik or BJP leaders like B Y Vijayendra and R Ashoka would take responsibility for the incident. Yet, the BJP's silence has been deafening – no condemnation, no demand for a probe, no outrage. When children's lives are endangered, selective outrage is not just hypocrisy; it is government's SOP is a welcome and necessary step. Headmasters are now required to inspect school premises before classes begin, check for contamination or odour in water, and ensure water tanks are locked. Lavatories must be kept clean, first-aid kits must be maintained, and inspection details updated daily on the Students' Achievement Tracking System (SATS) portal. The Deputy Director of Public Instruction (DDPI), Block Education Officers (BEOs), and nodal officers are required to conduct regular checks. But this is not enough; the SOP will remain only on paper unless senior officers face consequences for lapses. Children should never be collateral damage in someone else's war; their lives should not be compromised, whether by poisoning, prejudice, or poor hygiene. However, the larger battle is against the ideological poison that has enabled this crime. The Belagavi incident cannot be seen as merely criminal. The accused should be prosecuted under the harshest laws. But beyond the courtroom, society must confront the hatred that fuels such violence. Politicians who stoke division, fringe groups that act with impunity, and citizens who remain indifferent are all to blame. The choice before us is clear: stand together and resist this toxic agenda or remain passive as hatred corrodes the very fabric of our society.

BJP calls Rahul ‘director' of Congress' protest ‘drama' in Delhi
1 2 Hyderabad: Telangana BJP president N Ramchander Rao on Wednesday termed the Congress ' protest in Delhi as a mere 'drama' aimed at misleading the BC community in Telangana. Addressing the media at Ramagudam, he described Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi as the 'director' of this drama and participants as 'actors'. Rao alleged that BC reservations would be reduced to only 32% if the govt provides 10% quota for Muslims. Reminding that it was the Congress that made the Kamareddy BC declaration and introduced a BC reservation bill in the assembly, he questioned why the Congress govt is now unable to implement it in Telangana. He also pointed out that Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah was also present at the Kamareddy BC declaration meeting. "Instead of heading to Delhi to stage a dharna, Revanth Reddy should question Siddaramaiah about the implementation of BC reservations in Karnataka," he said. Rao accused the state govt of blaming the Centre for its own failure to implement the promised reservations. You Can Also Check: Hyderabad AQI | Weather in Hyderabad | Bank Holidays in Hyderabad | Public Holidays in Hyderabad He also stated that the reservation bill introduced in the Assembly made no mention of quota for Muslims. "The previous YS Rajasekhar Reddy govt provided 4% reservations to Muslims in education and employment. This 4% quota issue is still pending in the court. However, Congress and BRS adopted appeasement politics by extending political reservations, which led to Muslims winning 35 of the 50 councillor seats in the GHMC elections, thereby depriving genuine BC leaders of contesting elections," he claimed. Rao accused the Congress of lacking sincerity in implementing the promised 42% BC quota and of making baseless allegations against the Modi govt to cover up its own failures. "Let us do justice to BCs together. If the Congress is sincere about implementing 42% reservation to BCs in total without reducing any share, the BJP is ready to work with them," he said.
