Caste based census will damage India irreparably

Caste census ordered by the Centre is divisive, subversive, discriminatory and dangerous. It is bound to foment distrust, dissension and enmity across various castes. The self-seeking politicians have accentuated the caste-class divisions. Even after 64 years of independence we could not make India a casteless and classless nation. It is all the more a shame on the Communists who talk of classless society but are supporting it.

The Congress leadership is immature, fragile and eager to have truck with even the undesirable politicians for saving its govt. The leadership who is susceptible to blackmailers having been emboldened previously by their success to stall the Women’s reservation bill have again forced the govt. to order caste census.

 The corrupt, selfish and dodgy politicians have succeeded to escape CBI dragnet only because of the policy of quid pro quo pursued by the weakest leadership so far the country has ever had.
