The Caste Con Census. / Anand Teltumbde. , New Delhi : Navayana Publishing , 2025. 251p. : 16cm. 349 It has been almost a hundred years since the last nation-wide caste count. The 1931 Census, a British exercise, accounted for 4,147 castes. The Socio-Economic and Caste Census of 2011 returned over 46 lakh caste names. Castes are countless. Caste, by definition, divides.
