The results of the five State Assembly elections, where the Congress lost in four, are not a rejection of the caste census issue, that the party had placed at the centre stage, a senior Congress leader said, adding further that it will remain one of the key poll planks for the party in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
The party had promised that it will conduct a caste count in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh if it returns to power and in Madhya Pradesh if it wins. A similar promise was made for Telangana.
