This special report focuses on the decision by Infosys founder Narayana Murthy and his wife, Rajya Sabha MP Sudha Murthy, to refuse participation in Karnataka’s socio-economic and educational survey. The Murthy family stated there is ‘no relevance of caste counts at this point.’ They provided a written declaration stating they do not belong to any backward class and hence will not take part in the voluntary exercise. The move has drawn reactions, with the BJP asserting that the family’s choice must be respected as the survey is not mandatory for citizens. The state government also clarified that participation is on a voluntary basis, a stance that was recently upheld by the Karnataka High Court.
