Done our work. Rest up to govt': Rohini panel member
The New Indian Express Tirunelveli
|September 01, 2025
As the Centre is set to conduct a caste census along with the Census in 2027, Dr J K Bajaj, a member of the Rohini Commission, told this paper that unless the caste enumeration is carried out comprehensively, it wouldn't yield any results like the Socio-Economic Caste Census (SECC) by the UPA government in 2011.
Bajaj was one of four members of the commission led by former Delhi High Court chief justice G. Rohini, which was tasked with the sub-categorization of Other Backward Classes (OBCs) and ensuring equitable redistribution of quota benefits among all sub-communities.
Though the Commission submitted its report—after getting 14 extensions—to President Droupadi Murmu on 31 July 2023, the government told the Lok Sabha during the recently concluded Monsoon session that the ministry is yet to receive it.
