Are opposition parties using the caste census as a strategy to counter BJP’s political dominance?

The caste census has become a powerful political issue, especially as opposition parties try to challenge the BJP's dominance. Many opposition leaders are pushing hard for the caste census, claiming it is necessary for ensuring equal representation and fair resource allocation. But critics argue that this push is less about justice and more about creating a large caste-based vote bank to defeat the ruling party. With the Congress and other regional parties demanding caste data, the BJP is under pressure to respond.
 
Some believe that this strategy could reshape future elections by appealing directly to backward and marginalized communities. Others feel it could deepen divisions and distract from real development goals. So what do you think—is the opposition truly fighting for equality, or is this just another tactic to regain lost political ground? Share your thoughts by voting in this poll and be part of the national discussion!
