Cong’s Singhvi differs with Rahul on ‘population-based rights’

Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi has disagreed with Rahul Gandhi’s idea of giving rights based on population and warned that such a move could lead to majoritarianism. PM Modi also criticized the idea, questioning if it would be fair to give rights according to population. The release of the Bihar caste survey results has renewed demands for a national caste census. The BJP has accused the opposition of trying to divide society along caste lines.
