Census notification came hours after Union Home Minister Amit Shah chaired high-level meeting. Houselisting Operation will be carried out in first phase of the exercise.
The last Census of India was conducted in 2011 in two phases. What is new in this exercise is that the enumeration of caste will also take place alongside enumeration of population.
If Jadgeep Dhankhar and Mohan Bhagwat are really worried about the way the population of India is growing, they should just ask the government this—where is the Census?
Facts cannot become subjects of debate. So when the census is not conducted, and an eminent statistician who was calling for it gets fired quietly, it’s time to worry.
Modi govt preparing for Census leads us to examine new reality, marked by 3 ‘C’s: caste, coalition & Constitution. BJP machine could take all 3 in its stride. This election has changed that.
CSE, one of India’s oldest bourses, is edging towards a voluntary exit. It could never recover from market manipulation scam that caused a payment crisis at exchange back in 2001.
Fresh details of operation conducted by IAF, Army have come out in gazette notification giving citations of those who were awarded Vir Chakra for their bravery.
Education, reservations, govt jobs are meant to bring equality and dignity. That we are a long way from that is evident in the shoe thrown at the CJI and the suicide of Haryana IPS officer. The film Homebound has a lesson too.
