Meanwhile, BJP livid, calls out Cong's 'false propaganda'

The BJP on Tuesday alleged that the Congress is carrying out "false and misleading" propaganda regarding the Census 2027, as it hopes to gain power by claiming that society is falling apart due to the Narendra Modi-led government's decision to include caste enumeration in the nationwide exercise.

Lambasting the Congress for "misleading" people with false claims, BJP national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi alleged that the prime objective of the opposition party by resorting to such a "petty" act is to create confusion in society and gain power.

Since it is witnessing its objective falling apart, the Congress has resorted to spreading "falsehood, deception and lies", he told reporters at the BJP headquarters on Tuesday.
