A meeting of Lingayat Dharma Horata Samiti has passed a resolution urging the State Government to resend the recommendation of the Justice Nagmohan Das Committee on granting minority status to Lingayat.
This was decided in the meeting of community leaders in Belagavi on Sunday. The community leaders also paid tributes Sri Lingananda Swami and Mate Mahadevi during their death anniversaries.
“The Siddaramaiah Government forwarded the recommendations to the Union Government. But the Union Government rejected it, without going through it properly and without giving proper reasons,’’ Sri Channabasavananda Swami of Bengaluru told The Hindu.
