Chief minister stalin replied that we are not against caste-wise census, we are working in your favor.
PMK members sought permission to speak on the issue of caste census in tamil Nadu during recess in the tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly.
Speaking in this regard, Council President Appavu said that according to the Constitution of India, the Union government should conduct a census once in 10 years. That is what our chief minister has said under pressure. He told which ministry to write a letter and conduct survey immediately. Your opinion has been confirmed by the chief minister and the government. When you spoke about this yesterday, the chief minister agreed with you. Today, he said that the BMC members should sit on their seats.
Even after this, the BAM members stood up and asked for permission to speak. Responding then, chief minister M K stalin said that the problem related to caste-wise census has already been discussed in this House. As mentioned by the Speaker of the House, it is also mentioned in the budget. It has also been discussed many times in the Legislative Assembly. At the same time the founder of the Proletarian People's party Ramadoss, President Anbumani Ramadoss, GK Mani and members of the Proletarian People's party met me and told me about this problem. Then I have given them an explanation. That is what is going on. We are not against your caste wise census, we are working in your favor. He replied.
Following this, the PMK legislators walked out of the assembly. Meeting the reporters then, the Legislative APC leader GK Mani, not only the tamil Nadu government has the power to conduct the caste-wise census, but also the local bodies, including the panchayat Council Chairman. All caste organizations insist on this. Caste wise census is important to identify those below poverty line. 10.5 for Vanniyyas was brought in last regime. We don't deny that the court went and got a verdict in favor of 10.5 kg in this regime.. but we didn't implement it. He said that what the hand reached, the mouth did not get
