Upset over the lack of proper response from Chief Minister Siddaramaiah towards the demand of the Panchamasali community for inclusion under 2A category and recommending inclusion of all Lingayat sub-sects under Central OBC list, members of Lingayat Panchamasali community will stage a protest in Belagavi on Wednesday.
Addressing presspersons in Dharwad on Monday, seer of Lingayat Panchamasali Peetha of Koodalasangama Sri Basava Jaya Mrutyunjay Swami said that they are being forced to launch the agitation as the Siddaramaiah-led State government has remained apathetic towards their rightful demands.
The seer said that they will launch a protest march from Rani Chennamma Circle in Belagavi at 10 a.m. and will proceed to the Suvarna Soudha to highlight their demand.
