Abstract

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi raised the issue of caste census during his visit to the US, stating that reservations should only be scrapped when India becomes a fair place. He emphasized the need for a caste census to understand the integration of lower castes, backward castes, and Dalits into the system. Gandhi also highlighted the lack of representation of these groups in top businesses, courts, and media. He argued that a comprehensive caste census, along with an economic and institutional survey, is necessary to address the issue of fairness and justice. [Extracted from the article]
