BENGALURU: Social Welfare Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday said that the State Government will constitute a Cabinet sub-committee to look into the recommendations of the Sadashiva Commission that will submit a report to the government.Responding to Congress MLC R Dharmasena’s question expressing concern over not implementing the recommendations, Sriramulu said the panel was set up in 2005 and gave its report in 2012.

“It was discussed in the Cabinet in 2015 and it was  decided to place it in the Assembly. In 2018, a sub-committee was also formed, but its task remained incomplete due to change in the government. Now, we will form a Cabinet sub-committee,” he said.
