On Friday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi emphasised his strong support for a caste-based census during his address at the ‘Samvidhan Suraksha Sammelan’ in Rajgir, Nalanda district. Gandhi highlighted that the Congress party had long advocated for such a survey, which ultimately led the central government to announce it. He also recalled personally raising the issue in the Lok Sabha, urging Prime Minister Narendra Modi to conduct the caste census. Gandhi expressed concerns about the Centre’s ability to conduct the census effectively without proper representation of backward classes, Dalits, and tribals in finalising the questionnaire.
