Terror response a bigger issue than caste census: Congress

Send Push
NEW DELHI: Congress said the biggest national issue is Pahalgam attack and the steps govt will take to avenge the outrage "masterminded by Pakistan".

Congress spokesperson Jairam Ramesh said, "When RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat met the PM and there were meetings of CCS and CCPA, everyone thought it was about Pahalgam, that some action would be taken because the country is waiting. I did not expect an announcement on caste census. That is why I feel it is headline management and diversionary tactic." Ramesh said caste census and removal of 50% cap on reservations are important issues, but they can wait. "Today the issue is what response will be given to Pakistan and how to deal with Pahalgam," he added.
