Karnataka: New caste survey to be completed by Oct 7:CM

Karnataka will carry out a new Socio-Economic and Educational Survey from September 22 to October 7. Chief Minister Siddaramaih made a appeal to all citizens of Karnataka to actively participate in the comprehensive Socio-Economic and Educational Survey. He requested every citizen of the state to participate in this survey and answer all the questions put forth by the enumerators truthfully and to the best of their knowledge. He informed that Asha Karyakartas will visit houses in advance to provide the application form.  The Chief Minister stated that the survey will be undertaken by the Karnataka State Commission for Backwards Classes. This survey becomes necessary as the previous report submitted by the Kantharaj Commission a decade ago was not accepted by the government, he said. He emphasised that the survey is a crucial step towards achieving social justice and providing equal opportunities for all, as enshrined in the Constitution. The survey aims to cover the state’s entire population of approximately 7 crore people across 2 crore households. It will gather detailed information on the social, educational, political, and economic status of every family.He made this announcement on Friday during a press conference in Bengaluru. 

Each household will receive a Unique Household ID sticker, with 1.55 crore stickers already distributed. A 60-question questionnaire will be used to gather detailed information on families' social, economic, political, and educational status. To carry out this large-scale exercise, 1.85 lakh government school teachers will be deployed during the Dasara vacation. They will each receive an honorarium of up to Rs20,000, with Rs325 crore allocated specifically for their remuneration. Overall, the state has budgeted Rs420 crore for the survey — a significant increase from the Rs165 crore spent on the 2015 caste census.
