Table the Justice Sadashiva Commission report on SC sub-groups in the first session and seek justice for all sub-groups
“To present the report of Justice Sadashiva Commission in the first session of the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council and the Congress Party will strive to get justice to all the sub-groups”
The verdict
No record was found of the Sadashiva report being tabled. The government instead used a new Justice Nagamohan Das commission; the cabinet approved a 6-6-5 split of the 17% SC quota in August 2025, an order followed, and a sub-categorisation Bill was tabled in December 2025. Deadline left null: first-session date not sourced.
