Congress promises 75% reservation if voted to power in Karnataka


Team Udayavani, Apr 28, 2023, 3:59 PM IST

Congress leader and former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that If the Congress party is elected to power in Karnataka,  reservations will be increased from 50% to 75%.

He further stated that the Congress is committed to lifting the quota limit from 50% to 75% for all castes based on population. In the Indra Sawhney case, the Supreme Court capped reservations in India at 50%.

Siddaramaiah stated that the existing 50% restriction is not enforced by the Constitution and expressed confidence that the Supreme Court would approve a 75% cap if the state implements a quota strategy supported by a thorough socioeconomic report.
