'What is wrong with it?' On caste census, SC says govt should know number of people in backward class The Supreme Court has upheld the Centre's decision to conduct caste enumeration in the upcoming 2027 Census, stating there is "nothing wrong with it." A bench led by the Chief Justice emphasized that such data is crucial for the government to identify backward classes and implement effective welfare measures. This marks the first comprehensive caste count since 1931. #Supreme_Court #Chief_Justice #wrong #caste #caste_census #census #backward #Centre_decision #Justice_emphasized #backward_class
