Congress MP Rahul Gandhi criticized the exclusion of Dalit, tribal, and OBC women from the Miss India beauty pageant, stating, "I checked the list of Miss India, but there was no woman from Dalit, tribal, or OBC communities." Speaking at a 'Samvidhan Samman Sammelan' in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj, he reiterated the need for a nationwide caste census, emphasizing, "For us, the caste census is not just a census, it is a foundation for policymaking." Gandhi claimed ninety percent of India’s population is sidelined by the system despite their skills and talent, urging for better representation in key sectors.
