    Karnataka High Court refuses to stay caste -based survey, these important conditions kept


    The Karnataka High Court on Thursday (September 25, 2025) refused to stay the social and educational survey prevalent in the name of a caste -based survey. Instructing the state government to maintain the confidentiality of the data, the court also said that the survey should be voluntary. A division bench of Chief Justice Vibhu Bakhru and Justice CM Joshi said that they do not see any reason to stop the survey.

    What did the bench say?
    The bench said, 'We make it clear that the data collected will not be disclosed to anyone. The Karnataka State Backward Classes Commission (KSCBC) will ensure that the figures are completely safe and confidential. The judges also directed KSCBC to issue public notification that the survey is voluntary and no one can be forced to give any information. The court said that those who calculate this thing will also have to tell the public.

    Opposition to ethnic census
    Significantly, the caste census being done by the Karnataka government is being opposed and it is being alleged that it can be taken political advantage. Earlier this week, the state government defended the survey and said that the central government is adopting a double attitude in this matter. The survey, which started from 22 September, will run till October 7. Due to the problems of server and network, employees had a problem with the first two days.

    Abhishek Manu Singhvi gave this argument
    Senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi, appearing for the state, argued that the Center had amended the 105th constitution in 2021, under which the states got the right to identify and list the backward classes. Singhvi said in the court that now the Center is now supporting the petitioners because there is a government of the opposition party in the state.

  • 'After the statement of witnesses, the case is wrong, the hearing of sensitive cases should be done everyday': Supreme Court

    'After the statement of witnesses, the case is wrong, the hearing of sensitive cases should be done everyday': Supreme Court


    The Supreme Court has said that in particularly sensitive cases, the practice of day-to-day hearing has been completely abolished and the courts should adopt it again. The court, considering the right to hearing quick hearing, as being inherent in Article 21 of the Constitution, said that all the High Courts should set up a committee to seriously discuss this issue for the benefit of the concerned district court.

    Justice J. B. Pardiwala and Justice K. The bench of V. Vishwanathan said that it is necessary to understand the current social, political and administrative scenario, including the police methods, to return to the old practice of hearing on day-to-day basis.

    Thirty years old practice completely ended

    The bench said in its order of 22 September, 'Nearly thirty years old practice of day-to-day hearing in especially important or sensitive matters has been completely abolished. We believe that the time has come that the court should adopt this practice again.

    This order of the Supreme Court has come on the petition of the CBI, in which in September last year, the order of granting bail to an accused was challenged by the Calcutta High Court in a rape case. The bench said that one of the major factors responsible for the delay in justice system is not to continuously hear criminal cases.

    Hearing continues day by day after witnesses statement

    The bench said that even in such cases, the court consider the evidence 'in pieces' using the discretion and the cases continue to last for several months or years. The bench said that the legal status is that once the statement of the witnesses, the court concerned should continue hearing day by day until all the witnesses have the statements, except the witnesses who have left the government lawyer.

    The bench said that the Chief Justice of the High Court can instruct his administrative party to issue a circular to the concerned district judiciary, in which it is also mentioned that every investigation or hearing should be done quickly. The bench said that the hearing of the case should be completed by 31 December.
