Hyderabad, Feb 6 (Maxim News): BRS working president K. Tarak Rama Rao said that the caste census was a ploy to misguide Parliament and most importantly, the people of Telangana. In a strong response to the leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, KTR called out the caste census for all its errors and incomplete data. He dubbed the dishonest effort and chided Gandhi, saying the MP and Telangana Congress intended to mislead Parliament, the nation, and most importantly people of Telangana.
KTR said the BC population in the State was 1.85 crore amounting to about 51% of the population. When the minority BC population was also taken into consideration, the percentage was 61. Pointing out the very fact, KTR said he was surprised that the government was shamelessly passing off such erroneous data. Shouldn’t there be at least a marginal increase in BC population data in the past decade was his question. “How did the BC population see such a steep decline,” he asked. “From 1.85 crore, the BC population, according to the latest caste census, was currently recorded as 1.64 crore. The latest data puts BCs down to 46 percent from 51 percent in 2014, he added. (Maxim News)
