Lingayat Panchamasali Mahapeetha seer Sri Basava Jayamrutyunjaya Swamiji on Wednesday said that he will lead another satyagraha if the government does not provide reservation under backward class category 2A for all sub-communities of Lingayat. Speaking to reporters in Udupi during his visit for Pratijna Panchayat, Sri Jayamrutyunjaya said that the government had sought time till September 15 to consider the community’s demand. If the demands are not met by October 1, another satyagraha will be launched at Freedom Park in Bengaluru, he said. Stating that there were three crore Lingayats in the State, the swamiji said that many of them have not seen social and economic facilities. As such, there is demand for reservation in education and employment for all sub-communities of Lingayat.More Related News
