Justice G. Rohini-headed commission for the sub-categorisation of Other Backward Classes (OBC) caste groups on July 31 submitted its report on the issue to the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, nearly six years after the Union government first assigned the task to it — a task that was initially meant to be finished in 12 weeks
And couple of days later, the Patna High Court vacated the stay of the conduct on the caste census in Bihar
These two events are going to have a huge impact in the way caste politics will be played out in the run-up to 2024 general elections.
In this episode of Talking Politics, we discuss the Justice Rohini Commission and Patna High Court’s decision to uphold the Bihar caste survey
