Registering its concern over a purported move to alter everything, including the laws of the land, in favour of minorities, the Nair Service Society (NSS) has reiterated its objection to the demand for holding a caste census.
Addressing the all Kerala Nair delegates’ meet held as part of the Mannam Jayanti celebrations at Perunna, Changanassery, on Monday, NSS general secretary G. Sukumaran Nair said the move would only help exacerbate racial discrimination and foster rivalry between different castes, ultimately leading to communalism. He emphasised that the organisation had already urged the government to abandon the idea of a caste census and put an end to caste-based reservation.
