Muslim Conference welcomes RSS stand on implementing caste census

PALAKKAD: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s (RSS) stand on the implementation of a caste census is welcome, Kerala Muslim Conference general convenor A K Sultan has said. “The RSS should show zeal and put pressure on the Union government to sincerely implement the census,” he said while addressing the district committee of the organisation in Palakkad on Wednesday.

At the meeting, various leaders of the organisation asserted that reservation is a constitutional right and a stepping stone for socially and educationally backward communities (SEBC) to catch up with other advanced communities. “Denial of reservation is a violation of the Constitution,” they said.
