The Karnataka government has scheduled a special Cabinet meeting for April 24 to discuss internal reservation for Scheduled Castes. This meeting was initially planned for March 27 but was postponed due to the model code of conduct during the assembly bypolls in Davanagere South and Bagalkote, which took place on April 9. With elections concluded, the government aims to address over 65,000 vacant government positions, part of a larger total of 2.5 lakh vacancies in the state. Finalizing the internal reservation is seen as essential for expediting the recruitment process, especially in light of growing unrest among unemployed youths, exemplified by a significant protest in Hubballi on February 24 this year.
