Kannada body writes to PM on centralised judge recruitment
The Kannada Development Authority (KDA) has written to PM Narendra Modi and Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, opposing the Centre's proposal to hold a centralised examination for recruiting lower court judges. Calling the proposal a "forced imposition of alien Hindi culture," KDA Chairman SG Siddaramaiah urged the Karnataka government to withdraw its consent to the Centre's proposal.
