Karnataka government recommends legal action against IIM-B officials over caste discrimination allegations.

The Karnataka government is taking action against Indian Institute of Management-Bangalore (IIM-B) officials, including its director, over caste discrimination allegations against associate professor Gopal Das. An investigation by the Directorate of Civil Rights Enforcement found evidence of public disclosure of Das's caste and denial of equal opportunity. The government recommended legal action under the SC/ST Prevention of Atrocities Act, though IIM-B refutes the allegations, stating Das was denied promotion due to harassment complaints.
