Amid the ongoing debate over caste census, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma says, "BJP conducted caste census in Bihar. You (Congress) also conducted a caste census in Karnataka, you should release their data".

"Do not have double standards. Yesterday Janata Dal said that when the meeting for the caste census was held, Congress did not come. BJP supported caste census in Bihar. Opposition to caste census is not an issue for BJP. We stand wherever SC, ST and OBC get justice", he added.

It need be mentioned that Congress has been insisting over caste census to be included over the pending census in India. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has been making an issue of the caste census to point out injustices to many of the marginalized communities.
