Former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on Wednesday accused the erstwhile Siddaramaiah government of ‘leaking’ the caste census report during its tenure instead of accepting it. It had done so to score political points, the JD(S) leader said. If the Congress leader had respect for different castes, the caste census report would have been accepted during his tenure itself, Mr. Kumaraswamy said while speaking to reporters in Mysuru. Mr. Siddaramaiah had accused Mr. Kumaraswamy of blocking the submission of the caste census report during the tenure of the coalition government. Mr. Siddaramaiah has claimed that the caste census, which he had ordered,was not ready by the time his tenure at the helm concluded. Though it was ready when Mr. Kumaraswamy succeeded him as Chief Minister, the JD(S) leader warned the then Backward Classes Minister against accepting the report, Mr. Siddaramaiah had alleged.More Related News
