B.R. Nataraj Jois, vice-president, Mysuru region Brahmana Mahasabha, and K. Raghuram, honorary president of the district mahasabha said there were lakhs of people in Brahmin community living below the poverty line and were deprived of reservation benefits. Mr. Jois said ways and means of convincing the government to provide certain reservation to Brahmins would be one of the major agenda of the two-day conclave.

He said Brahmins, not only from Karnataka but also from many northern States, will participate.
