PTI reported. Earlier, Congress MP from Wayanad Rahul Gandhi while campaigning in Telangana for the upcoming assembly polls to be held on 30 November, promised to conduct a caste census if Congress is voted to power. “As time passes, our expectations from the political leaders keep decreasing.

Now when I ask people about their expectations from the government or the leaders, the answer is the same that their life is full of struggle... Their expectations are minimal... They want roads, water, electricity, and relief from price rises...

The situation has become strange. There is a lot of migration due to lack of opportunities," Priyanka Gandhi added.
