Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has promised to conduct a caste census if his party comes to power in next year's general elections in India. Gandhi accused the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of ignoring backward communities and argued that a caste census is necessary to ensure the participation of Other Backward Classes (OBCs), Dalits, tribals, and women. The BJP dismissed Gandhi's claims and suggested that he seek better advisers. Gandhi made the remarks during the launch of a housing scheme in Chhattisgarh, where the Congress is seeking to retain power in upcoming elections. | Latest News India
