Rahul Gandhi Advocates For Caste Survey, Promises To Abolish Agniveer Scheme
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi once again advocated for a caste survey and an economic review to ascertain who possesses how much wealth and asserted that this will be the first task of the INDIA bloc if it is voted to power.
Addressing students at “Nyay Manch – Ab India Bolega” in the national capital, Gandhi said an INDIA bloc government will also abolish the Agniveer scheme and compensate the 1.5 lakh youngsters who were selected but not given entry into the armed forces.
“The first step is a caste census along with an economic survey and it will ascertain who possesses how much wealth in the country,” he said.
People making up 90 per cent of the country’s population do not even know their strength and are unaware as to how much of India’s wealth they possess, he added.
“They say that they have almost 50 per cent of the population but they do not know how much wealth they have. We are going to conduct a caste census and the OBCs (Other Backward Classes) will know how much they have in different fields and the truth will come out,” Gandhi said.

Abhishek Banerjee Says TMC Was Keen On Alliance With Congress, Went To Meet Rahul Gandhi In Delhi
Senior TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee said his party was keen on an alliance with the Congress, for which he even went to meet Rahul Gandhi at his residence at 6 am.
Abhishek, the nephew of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and heir apparent to the party, asserted that Trinamool Congress candidates are the true representatives of the INDIA bloc in West Bengal.
“Had I not been serious, I would not have rushed to Rahul Gandhi’s residence in Delhi at 6 am. We were willing to have an alliance with the Congress in Lok Sabha polls in West Bengal, and despite state Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury’s barbs at our party for months, we did not react for a long time,” he said on Saturday.
“We gave Congress time till December but we could not wait indefinitely as we had to make preparations. Till December 31, 2023, not a single spokesperson of our party, including Mamata Banerjee, reacted to what Choudhury was saying,” he added.
Banerjee, the MP of Diamond Harbour, said the seat-sharing talks failed because of the state Congress’ belligerence.
