Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar on Saturday launched the second and final phase of Bihar caste-based survey 2023 from his Bakhtiarpur residence. Mr Kumar reached his residence, located 50 km away from Patna at around noon today to participate in the caste-based survey at his doorstep. The second and final phase of the survey will conclude on 15 May.
This stupendous exercise is viewed as politically significant ahead of the general elections in 2024 as well as the Assembly elections in Bihar due in 2025. Political parties/leaders would be in a better position to assess their caste-wise position.
Patna's sub-divisional magistrate Kundan Kumar who was present at Bakhtiarpur told mediapersons that a total 214 castes have been identified in Bihar. Each caste has been given a code number. If a person does not figure in any of these 214 castes, he or she will get a separate code number of 216.
