Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], October 17 (ANI): Karnataka Minister HK Patil on Friday said that Rajya Sabha MP Sudha Murthy and her husband, Infosys founder Narayana Murthy, misunderstood the ongoing Social and Educational Survey in the state, and termed it unfortunate that they refused to participate in the survey.

"It is unfortunate she (Sudha Murty) misunderstood this socio-economic survey being conducted. This is to identify the backwardness considering the socio-economic conditions. There is no reason why any sane thinking person should refuse to give this information," Patil told ANI.

Infosys founder Narayana Murthy and his wife Sudha Murty have declined to take part in the ongoing Social and Educational Survey in Karnataka, saying they do not belong to any backward caste.
