Dalit Minority And Caste Politics In India

by Narayan Das

Overview

The impact of caste politics and community politics has a great impact on the votes and winning elections in India. The political parties and leaders play this trump card of caste politics for alluring voters and gain political mileage. Without targeting the communities of the society and playing caste politics it’s very difficult to win elections. Moreover the one who indulge more into this type of politics and raise his voice against some other group of people will get more media attention and gains more popularity which in turn will be helpful in spreading their name to the limitless boundaries and get voter attention. This proves as a free publicity for them and this is what is needed for any elections. The present book is an effort to bring lights on caste politics run in India by desire for power rather than a substantial agenda for social reform.
