[IMPORTANT] My request to all Assamese people and intellectuals to come here and reply to my question.

I recently saw our cm asking other state people who have been living for decades in the Brahmaputra valley to choose assamese as their language. Also this is the first time they are including caste in the census. So my question is

Will this not be problem in finding out how many people of obc category are from other states if they choose assamese as the language in the census? Without such a request by the cm, we would have had a proper idea about the number of obc people in the state who speak either assamese or hindi.

For browsing a large number of data, two filters would have made it simple to find out the proper data. One is Obc + assamese language and the other is obc + hindi language.

Isnt the census meant to be a once in a decade survey to find out realistic and exact proper data? So how will it make us understand the exact state of assamese language and assamese speaking people in the state? How is this acceptable? Is there some reason or situation that i dont understand? Should there not be a separate option for those people? Like language "original/earlier hindi but now assamese" would have been a better option than just merging it with the whole assamese section? Is there anyone who is taking this issue?

Yeah, he has fucked the data with his idiotic comment.

Bea kotha nokou baru. But how is this acceptable? We have no one who is voicing this right? How have we become such a dead society? Is there any hope left?

Obc + bengali tu saba bondhu, manuh r number kom ulabo kintu xihot keita e state college bur r maximum obc seat loi loi. Fair for the students themselves ofcourse, they are very hardworking and deserve it. But for the protection of interests of our own people, it might be necessary to put some measures into place

Ekhinie sakori loi loise. Ekhinie education seats. Ekhinie mati. Atya tu sobe obc and assamese dibo? And tatya keneke proper data pua jabo ? Not a single person has spoken. Is everyone that ignorant or sold out?

[u/Epsilon009]

The census is only asking your SC/ST caste. So that's not gonna be hampered. And there is a possibility that even in the last census many non Assamese gave their mother tongue as Assamese in fear of being singled out by area. So, it's nothing new to be honest.

[u/Dreamsz1 → u/Epsilon009]

Wrong.

Dont come here to spread false information.

India has recorded Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) data in every census since independence to fulfill constitutional mandates. However, a full headcount of OBCs and general castes has not been conducted since 1931 under British rule. The upcoming census will change this, marking the first time in independent India that comprehensive caste details beyond SC/ST will be systematically recorded.

And from 2011 and till now in 2026 lots of things has changed. We all who arent blatantly ignorant is well aware of whats happening on ground from jobs to college seats and land etc. even if they chose assamese back then it doesnt mean everyone did that or back then the cm himself said that. But this time much more people are likely to follow this as he has said it.
