Caste Census: Who is in favor of caste survey?
Why caste survey is necessary for politicians? and what compulsionCastes have always played a very important role in Uttar Pradesh. Castes are the sharpest weapon of the opposition parties to stop the bjp which is raising the flag of Hindutva politics. Apart from the opposition parties, the parties standing with the government have also been openly supporting this matter. They also have compulsion because their political ground is based on caste arithmetic and that too backward caste. In such a situation, they have been raising this demand from time to time to keep the weaker castes with them on this pretext. bjp is very alert on this matter. He knows that opposing caste enumeration can harm him, so the party does not come out in front. The government also remains silent but the party's backward class leaders keep supporting it so that their image does not become anti-backward.
The total population of Uttar Pradesh is around 25 crores. In this, different leaders have different claims regarding castes. Every leader leaves no stone unturned to tell more about the number of his caste. Yadav, Kurmi, Jat, Lodh, Nishad, Rajbhar including more than 80 backward castes have a big vote bank. The number of backward castes has been told from 40 to 55 percent. On the other hand, the population of Dalits is said to be about 20 percent. However, the leaders have their own claims regarding the population of which caste. Like Dr. Sanjay Nishad has been claiming that the population of Nishads alone is 18% of the total population of UP. There is no official basis for this claim, but these figures are prepared for pressure politics.
