Nitish government’s census report is like a masterstroke
Professor Vikas Gupta is also seeing the caste survey of bihar as a masterstroke of policy. He says- Congress
government has been continuously trying to corner bjp by raising the issue of caste census. On the other hand,
bharatiya janata party has also been ignoring this issue. In such a situation, the release of caste census report by
Nitish government in bihar is like a master stroke for cm Nitish Kumar. According to him, even in INDIA, the
alliance of 28 opposition parties, nitish kumar proved that while on one hand other parties kept accusing each
other regarding the caste census, on the other hand Nitish's government completed it.
Who said what after the data was released?
Rahul Gandhi: After the release of caste-based census data in bihar, congress MP rahul gandhi wrote on social
platform X, “The caste census of bihar has revealed that OBC + sc + st are 84% there. Among the 90
secretaries of the Central government, only 3 are OBCs, who handle only 5% of India's budget. Therefore, it is
important to know the caste statistics of India. The more the population, the more rights, this is our pledge.”
Nitish Kumar: cm nitish kumar wrote on social platform X, Today on the auspicious occasion of Gandhi
Jayanti, the data of caste based census conducted in bihar has been published. Many congratulations to the entire
team engaged in the work of caste based enumeration! The proposal for caste based enumeration was passed
unanimously in the legislature. It was decided with the consent of all the 9 parties of bihar Assembly that the
state government will conduct caste based census from its own resources. Its approval was given by the Council
of Ministers on 02-06-2022. On the basis of this, the state government has conducted caste based census from its
own resources.
