Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi today hailed the decision of Group of Ministers to include caste in census as "a historic move" to achieve social justice.
The previous caste-wise census was done in 1931 during the British regime and the GoM decision would pave way for caste-wise enumeration after about 80 years, he said, writing in the DMK party organ "Murasoli" today. "The DMK, which itself is a movement for social justice, expresses its gratitude to the Centre for this decision", he said. The DMK leader said this decision was one example which proved that the Centre would not ignore the opinion of opposition parties.
