Hariprasad BK, a senior member of Congress, praised the Bihar government for disclosing the results of its caste census and encouraged Karnataka to do the same and release the results of its own caste census from 2017.
Hariprasad, a Karnataka Legislative Council member, spoke to X and said, “The caste census for Bihar, which is run by the INDIA alliance, has been made public. Rahul Gandhi Ji has expressed a strong commitment to delivering justice for the underprivileged. Karnataka must now immediately release the results of the 2017 caste census.
A member of the Ediga clan and a former leader of the opposition in the Karnataka Legislative Council, Hariprasad has advocated strongly for giving the underprivileged classes their due.
According to the party’s ideology, the caste census report aids in the growth and upliftment of all classes, especially the underprivileged and exploited, according to the leader of the Congress party.
The Bihar government revealed caste survey results on Monday. According to the data, which could have an impact on the Lok Sabha elections next year, the Other Backward Caste (OBC) and Extremely Backward Class (EBC) together make up 63% of the state’s population.
