The Bihar developments, with echoes in other states, have given rise to an interesting debate on social justice, affirmative action, merit, and age-old caste-based inequalities.
Aug 23, 2021 Giridhar Jha Bihar CM Nitish Kumar led a delegation of ten parties to impress upon the Prime Minister the need for a caste census to ameliorate the condition of the underdeveloped and marginalised sections of society.
A caste-based census will help in formulating various development plans effectively, Nitish Kumar said.
After breaking ranks with the BJP on issues such as caste-based census and demand for a probe into the Pegasus snooping, Nitish Kumar is set to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi with a delegation from Bihar.

Training his guns at state CM Nitish Kumar, Tejashwi Yadav questioned his silence on the legislations which 'hold out the spectre of reducing farmers to beggars'.
