"jaati na poocho sadh ki,pooch leejiye gyan...." wrote sant Kabir 400 yrs ago! He came from poor background and lacked formal education but preached for a casteless society centuries ago ! But look at our self serving politicians lot of 21st century hairsplitting on castes , all for votes ! Are we moving towards eradication of caste based politics or are we further accentuating castes system in the society ?Shouldn’t they be ashamed of themselves that instead of raking up important issue of development, price rise, inflation, corruption, reforms, education, health and other people centric issues in elections they are busy in endless debate on Caste ? A PM candidate to grab power at any cost latches on to his ‘neechi’ jaat’ card in desperation ! Opposition Cong on the other hand is out to prove he belongs to ‘upper cast’ !

Think why poor people vote on a caste basis? why do rich vote on a caste basis? reasons are different and yet the same.
It is congress, Mulayam, Maya, Mamta, And LALLU who have adopted the politics of caste and religion. It is shame that Indians still believe in caste and religion based politics. Indian citizens are BIG FOOLS and nothing less as they are entertaining such approaches.
