The District Child Protection Units (DCPUs) have been asked to collect data on orphans registered at various Bala Mandirs and submit the same to the State Backward Classes Commission.
Addressing presspersons here on Friday, Chairman of the Karnataka State Backward Classes Commission K. Jayaprakash Hegde said that after collecting the data, the commission would give its recommendations on providing reservation to the orphans.
The government would decide under which category the orphans should be given reservation. Providing reservation would help them in education as well as in employment, he said.
