MP Rapolu also mentioned the recommendations made by the Parliamentary Committee on Welfare of OBCs. Making an earnest request to the PM, he sought the approval of the caste-based census as a gift to the citizens on PM Narendra Modi's upcoming birthday. He wrote, "Your considered nod will create history and ensure correction and transparency. Hence, I earnestly pray for your cordial consideration and announce the caste-based census as a gift to Indian society on your ensuing birthday - September 17."
Further, blaming the UPA government for bringing a 'half-baked' census, he said,
"They themselves admitted their erring, rubbed on the wrong side of OBCs and results are history."
Central Government on the caste-based census
Narendra Modi-led Union government has always been emphasised that it won't allow caste-wise population except for Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes. Meanwhile, several other opposition parties have been raising their voice against the Centre's decision and are demanding the caste enumeration ahead of the upcoming assembly elections.
