    BJP, Congress ally protest as Karnataka uses SC/ST funds for guarantees

    Karnatakas use of SCPTSP funds for five guarantee schemes, led by CM Siddaramaiah, faces BJPs court challenge and DSSs protest. Rs 39,121 crore allocated, with Rs 14,283 crore diverted. DSS, led by Indudhar Honnapura, withdrew support. MLC Narayanswamy calls it "misappropriation." DSS cites 24.1% budget outlay and Bhagyalakshmi scheme. SCPTSP Act 7(a), (b), and (c) referenced.
