Dr. B. R. Ambedkar expressed his opinion on Indian Census on 26th October 1947, as follows : Editors. “The Census of India has over a number of decades ceased to be an operation in demography. It has become a Political affair. Every community seems to be attempting to artificially argument its numbers at the cost of some other community for the sake of capturing greater and greater degree of political power in its own hands. The Scheduled Castes seem to have been made a common victim for the satisfaction of the combined greed of the other communities who through their propagandists or enumerators are able to control the operations and the results of the Census.” 1 zz 1 : Khairmode, Vol. 10, P. 22.
