LUCKNOW, June 18 -- Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati on Tuesday said that the work of the caste census, which has remained pending for years, must now be completed with honesty and urgency, citing its direct connection with public welfare. She urged the Centre to take responsibility for its timely execution. In a post on X, the BSP chief also directed party leaders and office-bearers to hold small meetings across Uttar Pradesh and other states to review the organisation's functioning and raise awareness among supporters on the need for a caste census. "The BJP is projecting many achievements in these 11 years, but the people will assess how effective they have been in tackling poverty, unemployment, and public suffering. Their response will come at the right time," she posted. She said that the delay in the caste census had continued since the Congress regime. "Now that voices have been raised, the process has begun, but the Centre must ensure its completion in the interest of the nation." She called on partymen to stay informed about developments related to the census and said discussions on various organisational matters should continue through regular meetings.htc...
