In a new dimension to the raging debate on whether caste should be included in census, Minister of State for Home Affairs Ajay Maken wrote to young MPs urging them to oppose the regressive move that is being pushed as part of divisive agenda for short-term political gain.<br/> <br/>The Congress leader argued that the UPA had come to power on developmental agenda and any move to include caste in census will be "disastrous" for politicians, particularly the young ones who have a long future.<br/> <br/>In his letter Mr Maken said the "young conscience-driven individuals" like him had served the people and thrived politically on the all-inclusive development agenda. <br/> <br/>He pointed out that the last decade saw development and good governance, rather than caste or community being mandated by people across elections in different states. <br/>
