Doubts arise over completing caste census afresh in 90 days
Bengaluru: Doubts have arisen over whether the govt will be able to complete the exhaustive socio-economic and education survey — or the caste census — within the 90-day time frame set by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. Since the survey ran into stiff resistance from several communities, especially Lingayats and Vokkaligas, the Congress high command on Tuesday directed the govt to conduct the survey afresh. However, while many legislators say a re-enumeration within this time frame is an impossibility, ministers insist the Karnataka State Commission for Backward Classes (BC) can complete the survey if it is a "shortened" version of the original. The original survey took two years to complete. BK Hariprasad, MLC and former AICC general secretary, accused the govt of "giving in" to those who claimed there were lapses in the original survey conducted 10 years ago. "These lapses cannot be called unscientific data collection," said Hariprasad. "The govt, in its fresh terms of reference, will have to provide reasons for what is considered unscientific and how it will be addressed in the fresh re-enumeration." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like "내장지방만 쏙 빠집니다!" 신현재, 복부 똥뱃살 순식간에 녹여 신현재 중년 복부비만 개선 더 알아보기 Undo He said re-enumeration cannot stop at only collecting population numbers but will have to go through the process of asking citizens all 52 questions again. "This process will definitely stretch beyond 90 days," he said. However, Siddaramaiah hinted that the govt would likely opt for a shortened survey. "It will only be a re-enumeration. In principle, the govt has accepted the original socio-economic and education survey report and will proceed with it after fresh data emerges," he said. Labour Minister Santosh Lad said he is "confident" the survey will be completed in 90 days. "We already have a large database. Enumerators will not have to visit all houses again," said Lad. "They need to visit only places or houses that need corrections or additions to the existing database. All these will be explained in the terms of reference." He said the terms of reference will be decided at Thursday's special cabinet meeting. Meanwhile, former backward classes commission chairmen, HR Kantharaju, who prepared the 2015 survey report, and Jayaprakash Hegde, who submitted a revised version of the report to the govt in 2024, said they can comment on the possibility of completing the survey in a short time only after the cabinet decides how the re-enumeration will be conducted.

Parents should rethink if kids should be allowed to go so far: MP CM on Meghalaya murder
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Wednesday said the murder of Indore resident Raja Raghuvanshi during his honeymoon in Meghalaya is a 'horrific incident' which should make people think 'if children should be allowed to go so far'. CM Yadav said, 'The Sonam Raghuvanshi-Raja Raghuvanshi incident is a lesson for society as well as a very painful incident. When two families come together through marriage, things need to be taken care of very minutely. Letting children go so far also needs to be thought about. I am hurt by this incident…' State Cabinet Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya said, 'It's a good thing to get your children educated but they should also be taught culture. Children who don't have culture become Sonam. Our Indore's reputation has been smeared by that daughter. Whenever I go, people ask me about this incident. I feel ashamed talking about it.' Indore Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargava said he regrets if strong local reactions regarding the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi in Meghalaya have negatively impacted the northeastern state's image or its tourism. The Congress party hit back at the statements of the BJP leaders, calling it an example of conservative thinking. Party spokesperson Mukesh Nayak said, 'This is a conservative thinking of BJP leaders; giving such statements is not right. Instead they should focus on improving women's safety in this state.'

Shoulder responsibility and ensure justice to the Bengaluru stampede victims
Multiple investigations have been launched into the tragedy. The Karnataka High Court took suo motu cognisance and ordered the government to file a status report, the government ordered a magisterial inquiry and set up a one-man commission headed by a retired HC judge, and a probe by the police's criminal investigation department. It is hoped the inquiries bring to light the omissions and commissions, and who took the crucial decision to hold a victory parade and celebrate in the confines of the stadium. A number of issues require scrutiny: RCB's X post on free passes to the stadium, and whether top police officials' objections were brushed aside by politicians. There were many factors at play: the public rushing to collect the passes, restrictions at the stadium gates, a tired and depleted police force, and lakhs of people pouring in to celebrate the elusive IPL trophy. The Congress high command summoned Siddaramaiah and Deputy CM D K Shivakumar and sought an explanation. The opposition has been baying for the resignations of the two leaders and Home Minister G Parameshwara for turning the felicitation into a family and supporters' show, and absolving themselves of accountability. The image of the Congress government has come under severe drubbing and the leaders' stock has hit an all-time low. They should realise that it is in their interest to take responsibility and do justice to the grieving families. They may fall from grace now, but that's part of the leadership role.
