💨 Abstract

The Congress party accused the BJP of spreading disinformation about reservation for Muslims in Karnataka public contracts. The party clarified that the categorization of backward classes in Karnataka was done in 1994, and reservation was not on a religious basis. The BJP has been claiming that Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar suggested amending the Constitution for four percent reservation for Muslims, but Shivakumar denied this.
