The Congress on Sunday (April 12, 2026) alleged that the government wants to put the caste census in “cold storage” and that Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants to amend the women’s reservation law with the agenda of “misleading” the country.
Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh claimed the Modi government wants to amend Article 334-A on the grounds that the “caste census results will not be available for a few years”, overlooking the fact that both Bihar and Telangana completed the comprehensive caste survey in less than six months.
