‘Caste census our 1st task when we come to Centre’

Bundi/Dausa: Campaigning in Rajasthan on Sunday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi attacked the Modi govt on many fronts and on the caste census, he asserted that PM Modi will not conduct one, no matter what. “Rahul Gandhi and the Congress can do it,” he said. “We have ordered a caste census in Rajasthan.

As soon as the (Congress) govt comes to power in Delhi, our first task will be (to order) a cast census. Your true involvement will begin then. Mother India will be victorious then,” he said. He asked whether any big industrialist in the country is an OBC, Dalit or tribal and said he would stop giving speeches if there is one. If the BJP comes to power in Rajasthan, all public welfare schemes initiated by the Gehlot government will be discontinued, Gandhi said. He said Modi used to say in his public addresses that he is an OBC but when he demanded a caste census in Parliament, the PM started saying something different.
