Patna: Bihar leader from opposition Tejashwi Yadav today said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had insulted the head of Minister Nith Kumar by not giving him a time trying to meet and discuss the need for a caste-based census, which the center said would not be done by Caste. . The leader of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) said he had also written to the center of this issue.
Mr. Yadav comments today came a few days after the head of the minister himself said he had not received a response to his letter, received by the Prime Minister’s office on August 4, trying to meet Modi PM.
“Because both (central and bihar) have the government … we, opposition leaders of the Council of Bihar, without bias, go and meet with the respected main minister in his room. We say, you are looking for time (with PM) and we will leave and meet him, “he said.
“If he hasn’t been granted for a week now, somehow it is an insult to the main minister.”
The opposition leader Bihar refers to the prime minister has held high-ranking officials, implies that Kumar was chosen for the treatment.
“When we saw the prime minister’s twitter handle, it seemed he had time to meet other people, but if he could not meet Kumar Nitish and the delegation of the entire leadership of the Bihar Assembly on a problem that was so important … could say a lot, but he should make it Current time, “he said.
On Monday, Mr Kumar told the media that if the central government did not have a caste-based census, the discussion could begin by doing exercises to calculate caste data at the state level in Bihar.
New demand for caste-based census has been triggered by a statement by the center in parliament recently that exercises to ensure the population is only caste and the scheduled tribes are being considered.
