discuss the role of caste in Indian politics
HELLO ANKUR!!!
THERE IS INFLUENCE OF CASTE IN INDIAN POLITICS AND IT TAKES VARIOUS FORMS IN POLITICS IN EVERY STAGE OF ELECTION/POLITICS FROM NOMINATION OF CANDIDATE TO FORMING GOVT EVERYWHERE CASTE PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN NOMINATION,CAMPAIGN POLLING,EVERY STAGE THERE IS A IMAPACT CASTE...IF I TALK IN FORMAL/NCERT MANNER THEN THESE POINTS ARE THE CLARIFICATION OF YOUR QUESTION...
- AS YOU'VE SEEN AND NOTICED THAT POLITICAL LEADERS/CANDIDATES USUALLY APPEAL TO CASTE SENTIMENTS TO GET SUPPORT
- AND WE/CITIZEN ALSO USE TO VOTE AND SUPPORT THE CANDIDATE OF THEIR OWN CASTE
- YOU CAN ALSO NOTICE THAT AT THE TIME OF ELECTION THE 1st THING THAT POLITICAL PARTIES KEEP IN THEIR MIND THE CASTE COMPOSITION OF THE ELECTORATE AND NOMINATE CANDIDATE FROM DIFFERENT CASTE SO AS TO MUSTER NECESSARY SUPPORT TO WIN ELECTION
- WHEN GOVT. IS FORMED WE CAN SEE THAT PARTIES TAKE CARE THAT REPRESENTATIVE OF DIFFERENT CASTE CAN HAVE PLACE IN IT
- "ONE PERSON-ONE VOTE-ONE VALUE" COMPELLED THE POLITICAL LEADERS TO MOBILIZED AND GET POLITICAL SUPPORT OF ALL CASTE!!!
HOPE YOU GOT IT!!!
BEST OF LUCK FOR YOUR BOARDS EXAM!!!
THANK YOU!!!
