Amid tectonic political churn at the hustings in Bihar, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Sunday reiterated the party's push for a caste-based census across the country.
The divergent opinions within the state's leadership -- especially between Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar -- have brought to the forefront the rift within the Karnataka Congress.
On the second day of the Bihar assembly winter session, Bhartiya Janata Party workers staged a protest outside Vidhan Sabha against the Bihar Government over the use of water cannons on Anganvadi workers and the caste-based census report.
Reacting to the caste-based census report released by Bihar Government, Singh told ANI, “I have always supported this. If we come to power here, we will also get a caste-based census done in Madhya Pradesh.”
