Anand Teltumbde Critiques Caste Census

Anand Teltumbde has written a book called 'The Caste Con Census' where he talks about a big count of people's castes that the Indian government is planning to do.

He says that this count, or census, might not get rid of the caste system but could make it stronger.

Teltumbde explains that caste has been a big part of Indian society for a long time and has changed a lot over the years.

He thinks that counting castes might not help people who are treated unfairly because of their caste.

Instead, he believes that the government should focus on making sure everyone has the same opportunities.

Some people agree with Teltumbde, but others think that even if the census doesn't solve all problems, it could still help people understand and fight against caste discrimination.
