Suddenly After 11 Years, We Support It: Rahul On Caste Census Announcement
The Daily Guardian
|May 01, 2025
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said on Wednesday that the party supports the government's decision to conduct caste enumeration during the forthcoming population census, but it should specify a timeline.
Addressing a press conference here, Rahul Gandhi, who is the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, said Telangana has provided a model for conducting caste census and it can provide a blueprint for the exercise at the national level.
He said the Congress has been demanding a caste census and the government had "suddenly after 11 years" taken this decision.
"We had said in the Parliament that we will make Caste Census happen. We had also said that we would scrap the 50% cap, the artificial wall that is in place. Narendra Modi used to say that there are just four castes. Don't know what happened but suddenly after 11 years, Caste Census has been announced," Rahul Gandhi said.
