the bbc�*s india business correspondent nikhil inamdar has the latest from mumbai.census was last conducted back in 2011. it was due in 2021 but was delayed by the pandemic and other technical hurdles. the modi government has drawn sharp criticism from economists and policymakers for dragging their feet on a new survey, because a census is crucial to plug key data gaps. while technically it is only an enumeration of the country's entire population, it gives policymakers information on a range of indicators, from housing and urbanisation to migration, fertility and mortality rates, among others. without it, resource allocation in the budget becomes a difficult task. the process of conducting the census is likely to begin in september, according to some reports, and it will take at least 18 months for the new survey to be completed, given how complex the task is. we just want to recap the market moves on wall street before we go. all three major indices closed the tuesday session relatively flat. investors are now focused on the fed as the central bank unveils its dec

looks of beautiful people, welcome to delhi, delhi is the second largest metropolis of india after mumbai more than 16 million people live on its territory, and this is despite the fact that only 100... years ago the population was about 200,000. many are accustomed to consider delhi the capital of india, but in fact, calling it that is not entirely correct. in the last century it grew so much that it received the status of a national capital district. the city is divided into nine districts, each of them consists of three districts for travelers the most interesting is new delhi with modern architectural buildings and old. delhi, where historical monuments and a unique atmosphere have been preserved. well, i finally found them. behind me are the kashmiri gate. it was with this landmark that the history of delhi began. the gate was built according to the design of the british military engineer robert smith in 1835. and they were named so because the road to kashmir passed through them. on the busy streets of delhi, there is nothing surprising, because it is considered a sacred animal here

mumbai pride parade for carrying flag that says jab him right in his name. so those consequences of dalit people associating themselves with ambedkar have to be talked about. we see now ambedkar's biography and ambedkar's life has become an industry that have been 6 to 7 books that have been published in the past two three years, about ambedkar's life. and that's fantastic. applaud that and i celebrate. but at the same time, we also have to understand that not everybody has access to him. i did not have access to a maker. not just because i didn't know about him, but because if i celebrated ambedkar, that would give away my secret. that would give away the fact that i was hiding my caste identity. because now we are called jp barley, we are called bheem. that's right. that's the slur people use against us. so here's identity when it is used by dalit people has become a slur but it is used by dominant people is celebrated. it's very to how we see in the united states when white people or speak in in ebonics or in black language vernacular, they celebrate it.
