Chandigarh, May 22 (HS). Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has reiterated the demand for caste census, saying that 90 percent of India is Dalits, tribals and backward people. Modi government talks about giving them respect but Congress is talking about giving them a share in power. This has now become for him not a political issue but the mission of life.
Rahul Gandhi was addressing the Samvidhan Samman Sammelan organised by Samruddha Bharat Foundation in Panchkula on Wednesday evening. He said that the Constitution is not just a book but a transfer of power. 90 percent of the population in this country is Dalit, Adivasi, OBC but they have no stake in the narrative of the country. Only 10 percent of the population is present on every front. Criticising a section of the media, Rahul Gandhi said that farmers, labourers, barbers, carpenters, sanitation workers are all out of the media's agenda today.
90 percent are being excluded from the country's system, while all the schemes are made in their name. Today India is talked about on forums and there is no 90 percent participation. Rahul Gandhi said that if the Congress government comes to power, the first thing that will happen is the caste census. After this, a survey will be conducted as to how much participation these 90 percent have in the justice system of the country. After this, by conducting an economic financial survey of the country, we will find out how economically strong this 90 percent of India is.
Rahul Gandhi said that the fight to save the Constitution is not just 50 years old but thousands of years old. He told the Constitution advocates coming from different states in the conference that the part of India which has been ignored for the last ten years and only ten percent of the people are being considered as India, should together create a vision for the next twenty years in which 90 percent of India will participate. yes. This work should be taken like a mission.
