Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel on Tuesday wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi demanding that the national census be conducted and a separate code for other backward classes be included.
He said that “despite the efforts of the State government”, people belonging to other backward classes or OBCs were not being provided the benefits of 27% reservation in Chhattisgarh. He said denying constitutional rights to a major part of the population will inevitably cause angst.
