💨 Abstract

The Union Cabinet's approval for a caste-based census in India was celebrated by residents of Varanasi on May 1. They expressed joy through traditional drumming and gulal (coloured powder) and called it a "historic decision." Many believe it will lead to more inclusive policymaking. The national census, originally scheduled for April 2020, was delayed due to COVID-19.
