NEW DELHI: For the Haryana elections, Congress has allotted 12 tickets to Jatavs and aligned sub-castes inside the Dalit neighborhood, and 5 to non-Jatavs, displaying its persevering with reliance on the dominant Scheduled Caste neighborhood as its help base, in keeping with its lukewarm response to the talk on sub-categorisation.
However the in-office BJP, in line with an evaluation of candidates, has fielded 9 non-Jatavs and eight Jatavs, a transparent reflection of its aggressive approval of sub-division of SCs.
The intra-Dalit choice of events is critical within the mild of the current Supreme Courtroom judgment which inexperienced flagged the controversial measure of sub-categorisation, roiling the already unstable politics across the marginalised neighborhood.
Haryana holds a particular place for Dalits, because it ranks second within the nation by way of the share of the neighborhood’s inhabitants, with Punjab on the prime.
Sub-categorisation implies division of complete reservation amongst “better-off SCs” and “backward SCs” for “equitable distribution” of advantages.
Haryana has 17 reserved seats the place solely Dalits can contest. However it’s the diversified choice of sub-castes that provides away the heterogenous nature of the sprawling neighborhood and, on the identical time, betrays how sub-castes are aligned politically amongst rivals.
