Karnataka Caste Survey: Row Over 52 New Christian 'Castes', SC/STs & OBCs Slam Congress Government

Описание: The Karnataka caste survey has stirred political controversy even before its full rollout. Sparked by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's remarks on religious conversions, the issue has intensified with revelations that the survey categorises several Christian communities under Hindu caste labels, such as "Kuruba Christian" and "Brahmin Christian." This classification has drawn sharp criticism from the BJP, questioning the legitimacy and implications of such groupings. While the Chief Minister has stated that individuals who convert must identify solely with their chosen religion and not retain Hindu caste identities, the matter remains far from resolved. In this discussion, we are joined by Congress representative Shathabish Shivanna and BJP spokesperson Prashanth GS to weigh in on the political and social complexities arising from the survey.
