The caste census in India has become a hot topic in politics. While many argue it’s necessary for achieving social justice, there’s growing concern that political parties are using it as a tool to secure caste-based votes. Before elections, several parties promise to conduct or release caste data, aiming to win the trust of specific communities. But does this lead to real change or just temporary attention?
Critics say that caste census should be about improving education, employment, and social equality—not about gaining votes. On the other hand, supporters believe politics can be a way to bring caste-based inequalities to light. What’s your view? Is caste census truly about development or more about political advantage?
