Rahul Gandhi Again Presses Caste Census Demand; Says ‘Checked Miss India List, Found No Women From Dalit, Tribal or OBC’ (Watch Video)
“I checked the list of Miss India to see if there would be any Dalit or tribal woman in it, but there was no woman from Dalit, tribal, or OBC backgrounds. Still, the media talks about dance, music, cricket, Bollywood but does not talk about farmers and labourers," Rahul Gandhi said.
Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi expressed his concerns about the representation of marginalised communities in popular media and pressed for nationwide caste census demand. “I checked the list of Miss India to see if there would be any Dalit or tribal woman in it, but there was no woman from Dalit, tribal, or OBC backgrounds. Still, the media talks about dance, music, cricket, Bollywood but does not talk about farmers and labourers," Rahul Gandhi said. Addressing the "Samvidhan Samman Sammelan" in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj, Gandhi said, "90 per cent people are sitting out of the system. They have skill, knowledge but no connections (with the system). That is why we have raised the demand for a caste census." ‘Someone Who Doesn’t Know About Caste…’: Anurag Thakur’s Caste Jibe Sparks Heated Exchange With Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha (Watch Video).
