Rahul Gandhi, a prominent figure in the Congress party, made a strong statement during the 'Samajik Nyay Sammelan' by emphasizing his dedication to addressing the injustice faced by 90% of the population. He faced backlash from the BJP for his push for a caste census and measures for wealth redistribution, portraying it as essential for achieving justice in society.
Gandhi stressed that his focus is on ensuring fairness and equality for the majority of the population, dismissing claims of his intentions to merely redistribute wealth without justification. He reiterated that the implementation of a caste census would be a priority if his party comes into power, emphasizing the need to understand and rectify the prevalent disparities in society.
The Congress leader condemned the BJP's attempts to divert attention from crucial issues like economic inequality and the marginalization of certain social groups. Gandhi argued that shedding light on issues related to caste, economic status, and social representation is crucial for fostering a more just and inclusive society. He emphasized that the essence of his mission goes beyond political gain, aiming for a transformative impact on societal structures and addressing long-standing injustices.
