Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Tuesday demanded the state government start conducting the caste survey right away, saying though some parties are against it, this is the only way to justice for the OBCs. "The news of the caste census data conducted by the Bihar government being made public is in the news today and intense discussions are going on on it.
