Asserting that the Congress would demolish the "fake barrier" of a 50 per cent cap on reservations after coming to power at the Centre, the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha said that a caste census similar to the exercise conducted in Telangana, which is ruled by the grand old party, will change the development model of the country.
