Minorities are being reduced to second grade citizens, alleges Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav has alleged that efforts are being made to reduce minorities, especially Muslims, to second-grade citizens.

While participating in a debate in Lok Sabha on the ‘Glorious Journey of 75 Years of the Constitution of India’, Yadav said, “Whenever we get the opportunity, we will conduct a caste census.”

 Yadav said a caste survey will bridge the gap among castes.

He also demanded the government to come out with figures on the per capita income of those below the poverty line.

Yadav attacked the government over alleged Chinese transgressions into India and claimed the country’s borders are shrinking.
