To create awareness about the recently released caste survey report in Bihar, separate teams of ruling coalition partners Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Janata Dal (United) have begun visiting different Assembly constituencies, for mass public interactions ahead of the upcoming general election next year.

The parties are focused on Extremely Backward Class (EBC), Scheduled Caste (SC) and Other Backward Class (OBC) sections which together account for over 82% of the State population, according to the caste survey. JD(U) is said to have covered 63 of total 243 Assembly constituencies in the State so far.
