India, Oct. 17 -- Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday reacted to Infosys founder N R Narayan Murthy and his wife Sudha Murty's decision to not participate in the caste survey being conducted by the state government.

The Chief Minister asked if the couple would also refuse to participate in the survey if the union government conducts a survey in future.

Reacting to the couple's reasoning for the move that they didn't belong to any backward class, Siddaramaiah said: "It is wrong to think of the survey as a survey of the backward classes. The central government will also conduct a caste census in the coming days, will they still not cooperate? They may be showing such disobedience due to the misinformation they have."

Siddaram...
