Mysore/Mysuru: A day after the State Government announced the formation of Karnataka Veerashaiva-Lingayat Development Corporation (KVLDC), the Mysuru-Chamarajanagar District Vokkaliga Association had demanded formation of Vokkaliga Development Corporation.
Addressing a press meet here on Wednesday, Association President G. Manju said that there were over 80 lakh Vokkaligas in the State and most of them depended on agriculture for their living. Maintaining that the community is lagging behind on economic, academic and social fronts, he said that the Government must form the Corporation for the upliftment of Vokkaligas.
