"Rs 15,000 will be credited to accounts of all women of the state every year by the state government," Rahul Gandhi said.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said that when their government is formed in Delhi, the first signature will be on the caste census.
He said, "This (caste census) will be the most revolutionary decision after independence."
While addressing a public rally in poll-bound Chhattisgarh's Bemetara district, Rahul Gandhi said, "When it comes to giving rights to OBCs, they say there are no OBCs. There is only one caste in India, the poor. There are OBCs, and we will find out how many there are. Whether it's 10, 20, or 60 per cent, you will get as much participation as there is population. Whether Narendra Modi does it or not, if our government is formed in Chhattisgarh, a caste survey will be done here. When our government is formed in Delhi, the first signature will be on the caste census."
