Rahul Gandhi, a prominent Indian opposition leader, criticized the lack of diversity in the Miss India pageant, pointing out the absence of Dalit, tribal, and OBC (Other Backward Classes) women among the contestants. This comment appears to be part of a broader critique of social inequality in India and a push for a caste census. Gandhi's remarks highlight the ongoing debate about representation and opportunities for marginalized communities in various aspects of Indian society, including beauty pageants.

00:00We will have a caste-based census, a social-economic census, and an institutional census.
00:06I took out the Miss India list and said,
00:09there will be at least one Dalit woman and one Adivasi woman.
00:14No.
00:15There is no Dalit, no Adivasi, no OBC, no one.
00:18The entire banking system was made for 15 people.
00:22These are our brothers,
00:25who are working for Mochi, who have never been respected in their entire life.
00:31Why don't we have a bank for them?
00:35Who will help them?
00:37We will make a specialised bank just for them.
00:43So, this is the meaning of a policy-making framework.
00:47Our job is to help the 100% population of India.
00:55Our job is to help the 5-10% population of India.
01:01That government's job cannot be done.
01:04And for that, we need information.
01:08This is the 21st century.
01:10We need data, not just data.
01:11Now, note this.
01:14I have said two things.
01:16I have said,
01:18that we will have a caste-based census, a socio-economic census, and an institutional census.
01:26And the 50% barrier, which we don't accept, frankly speaking,
01:33we will get rid of it.
01:34This is the 21st century.
01:37And after that, I have today...
01:41I have today...
01:43I have today...
01:47Listen, listen.
01:48What will we do after that?
01:54I have not said that.
01:56Because first of all, I want the data to be in front of us.
02:01That they are so evil.
02:04They have so much participation in the Indian institutions.
02:09It is a matter of reservation.
02:13But we don't get a chance.
02:14It is the truth. Everyone knows.
02:17If it is reversed, it becomes a lateral entry.
02:21It becomes a lateral entry.
02:23I guarantee you that you will not get 90% in a lateral entry.
02:29One side, they hit you with a lateral entry.
02:32The other side, a contractor.
02:38So, I mean, look down.
02:41They hit you there. Look up.
02:42They hit you there. Look to the side.
02:43They hit you there.
02:45I mean, look here.
02:48And 90% is your population.
02:52Now, if you had 10%, someone could have said,
02:55yes, brother, 10% population is fine.
02:57But 90% population cannot run a country without you.
03:01And then you will see in the media, brother,
03:03what will happen first?
03:05They will talk about Bollywood.
03:08You will see a dance song there.
03:10Even in that, you will not get 90%.
03:15You will not get anyone.
03:20I checked, brother.
03:24I have made a list.
03:26I said, brother, I have made a list of Miss India.
03:29I said, let me see.
03:33I say, look, friend.
03:35You say, I have made a list of Miss India.
03:42Listen, listen.
03:43I have made a list of Miss India.
03:46I said, okay, let's see.
03:49I mean, even the minority comes in 90%, madam.
03:54You are included.
03:57And you, and maybe what is happening with you,
04:04that is the worst.
04:06I mean, you are being attacked directly.
04:10Right?
04:12But you are in 90%.
04:14So I made a list of Miss India.
04:16I said, brother, it will be in this.
04:19I mean, there will be a Dalit woman,
04:21there will be a tribal woman.
04:23No.
04:24There is no Dalit, no tribal, no OBC, no one.
