Gehlot Advocates for Caste-Based Census, Accuses BJP of Evading Key Issues

Ahead of the crucial November 25 assembly polls in Rajasthan, Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has highlighted the Congress party’s move to propose a caste-based census. The proposal, passed in Raipur, aligns with Congress MP Rahul Gandhi’s advocacy for a nationwide caste-based census. Gehlot’s announcement indicates the party’s focus on caste dynamics in the political sphere.

Gehlot’s Criticism of BJP’s Campaign Strategy

During his visit to Dausa in Rajasthan, Gehlot criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for its approach to the election campaign. He accused the BJP of ignoring the Congress government’s achievements in Rajasthan, including its laws and guarantees, and instead stirring up the public without engaging in meaningful debate about the state’s governance.

Challenge to BJP for Substantive Debate

Gehlot challenged the BJP to a more substantive debate, urging them to discuss the Congress government’s successes and shortcomings in Rajasthan. This statement reflects Gehlot’s confidence in his government’s performance and a call for a more issue-focused political discourse.

Congress’s Confidence in the Upcoming Elections

Expressing strong confidence in the Congress party’s prospects, Gehlot stated that the people of Rajasthan are inclined to re-elect the current government. His comment reflects a positive sentiment among the electorate, as per his observation. With the campaign intensifying, leaders are actively engaging in rallies across the state, aiming to connect with voters before the polls.

Election Schedule

The assembly polls in Rajasthan are scheduled for November 25, with the political climate heating up as leaders criss-cross the state. The counting of votes will take place on December 3, alongside four other states, marking a significant date for the political future of Rajasthan.
