flag Karnataka's high court permits ongoing socio-economic survey with voluntary participation and strict data privacy.

flag The Karnataka High Court has allowed the state’s socio-economic survey to continue, affirming its legality while mandating voluntary participation and strict data confidentiality. flag The survey, led by the Backwards Classes Commission and running from September 22 to October 7, 2025, aims to assess the socio-educational status of about seven crore people. flag The court directed the government to issue a clear notification on voluntary participation and to prevent unauthorized data disclosure. flag Despite concerns over caste categorization and potential manipulation raised by legal experts, the court did not halt the survey. flag Chief Minister Siddaramaiah defended the initiative, calling opposition criticism politically motivated. flag The state’s effort aligns with similar surveys in Telangana, which found OBCs, including religious minorities, constitute 56.4% of the population.
