    Case Summary: WA 435/2024 The Karnataka High Court dismissed MLA G. Manjunatha's appeal challenging a District Caste Verification Committee (DCVC) report that found he belongs to the Byragi caste (Other Backward Class), not the Budga Jangam caste (Scheduled Caste). The court upheld the earlier single judge's decision that the appellant failed to prove Budga Jangam membership and invalidated his 2012 SC certificate, noting the certificate was obtained by misusing government computers.
