Demand for Caste Census Driven by Social Confirmation, Not Politics: Nitish Kumar

Patna: Head of Bihar Minister Nitish Kumar on Monday confirmed that his strong tone for caste-based census was driven by “social”, and “non-political”, worries.
Talking to reporters on the sidelines of the weekly public interaction program here, Nitish Kumar also revealed that his letter was looking for an appointment with Prime Minister Narendra Modi sent last week and response to the same thing was awaited.
“I have learned that my letter has reached the Prime Minister’s office on August 4.
I look forward to the response”, Kumar said.
He has expressed an agreement to the advice that he must meet Modi to the delegation consisting of leaders of all parties in the state.
“This is not a political problem.
This is a social problem.
The reason why demand (for Caste Census) has found resonance in many countries.
The reason why we have agreed to the delegation of all parties is that in Bihar there is a round sound about this problem.
Resolution against the effect has been continued In the legislature in a round voice twice, “he said.
New demand for caste census has been triggered by a statement by the center in parliament recently that exercises to ensure the population is only SCS and STS being considered.
This has caused Churn in Bihar politics where leading political leaders, including Nitish Kumar and rival then Prasad, including OBC which is numerically strong.
RJD Prasad, can be predicted, as much as it supports the census that makes caste employees other than SCS and STS as Kumar.
BJP, which has, at the state level, in the past is seconded demand, now it seems vaguely considering the different attitude adopted by its peak leadership.
Kumar, however, insisted, “We must declare before the center what we think and feel on this problem.
This is for the center to decide whether to receive a dispute or not.
The last time the caste census was detained was the way back in 1931.
New exercises will help Bring good government fruits to less effective parts “.
Observing that the implementation of the booking for OBC in accordance with the recommendation of the Mandal commission has been in depth in its implications, Kumar shows that the government has tried to follow up with efforts to reduce gender gaps for women.
He also repeated that if left without alternative, his government could consider conducting a country-specific caste survey through the census, provisions that could only be decided by the center, would be the most preferred choice.
