Deputy Chief Minister G. Parameshwara stated that the cabinet will discuss and decide on future legal steps, including appealing to the Supreme Court, regarding the High Court's verdict on increased reservation for SC/ST communities. He added that the government had previously filed a plea in court to uphold the increased reservation, which was challenged by various individuals. Opposition leader Siddaramaiah urged the central government to increase reservation based on population and protect it under Article 9 of the Constitution.
