Panchamasalis, a Lingayat sub-sect, claim to account for 60 per cent of the community. Under the leadership of seer Basavajaya Mrutunjaya Swamy, they are demanding they be shifted from the Other Backward Classes (OBC) 3B sub-category under which they get five per cent reservation along with other Lingayats, to 2A sub-category which would afford them 15 per cent quota.
