Caste remark ‘aimed’ at Rahul sparks row

Former Union minister Anurag Thakur created a stir in Lok Sabha by questioning the motivations behind calls for a caste census, a move seen as opportunistic by the BJP. His remarks led to Congress MPs protesting, but Prime Minister Modi publicly supported Thakur’s stance. Rahul Gandhi declined to demand an apology for Thakur’s comments.
