Rahul Gandhi said he welcomes the govt's 'sudden' decision to include caste enumeration in the forthcoming census after '11 years of opposing it' but it should give a timeline for its implementation
Announcing the decision, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said the census comes under the purview of the Centre but some states have done caste enumeration in the name of surveys.
Calling the move the beginning of a transformative movement, the SP chief said this is the first stage of a positive democratic movement for rights, and the last phase of BJP's negative politics.
