Nishad Party firm on caste census, wants more seats in 2024

Nishad Party chief and Uttar Pradesh minister Sanjay Nishad has reiterated his party’s demand for a caste survey in UP and said that he hoped that “elder brother” BJP would ensure that his party got “respectable number of seats” as part of the seat-sharing agreement in 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
