Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said "It is a crucial issue and we have been seeking this for long. It if works out, that nothing could be better".
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar would be visiting Delhi tomorrow to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi to push for caste-based census. He would be leading a 10-member delegation, which would include the BJP, which had not been keen on such a census. "Some people have reached Delhi already and some will go with me. Tomorrow we will meet at 11," he said, speaking to reporters on the occasion of rakhi. Asked if the matter will be resolved tomorrow, he said "We will see". "It is a crucial issue and we have been seeking this for long. It if works out, that nothing could be better than that. Moreover, it would be not just for Bihar, people in the whole country will benefit from this. It should be done at least once. We will put forward our views from this angle," he said.More Related News
