Caste survey is 'Census cloaked as survey': Centre to Karnataka HC
Centre said that Karnataka’s socio-economic and educational survey is a "census cloaked as a survey". "In pith and substance, having regard to its universality, it is a census cloaked as a survey," Additional Solicitor General Arvind Kamath submitted before the Karnataka HC on September 24. Kamath was questioning the purpose of survey if the state felt it was not mandatory.
