💨 Abstract

The Telangana caste survey conducted in 2014 and 2024 by different governments has sparked controversy over the significant variance in the proportion of backward castes. The 2014 survey showed 51% of the population as backward castes, while the 2024 survey reported it as 46%. The reports, initially not made public, have been questioned for their methodologies, execution, and accuracy.
