How to stop India’s endless caste conflicts ? Give share to each jati in proportion to its population

All over the world there is a resurgence of identity politics. Every human being needs identity. We have devoted a whole chapter in our book, Caste — A Nation Within the Nation, (Chapter 11: “Identity rocks the world”) to deal with identity.

Brahminical people, a micro-minority of 3%, are ruling this country of over 1,000 million disguising themselves wearing a shabby, ill-fitting dress called “Hinduism”. But the oppressed Bahujans soon discovered that this make-believe identity named Hinduism is harming their interests. Bahujans also realised that this borrowed dress of Hinduism is only helping the minority upper castes and strengthening the enemy identity. Consequently, their future well-being is getting destroyed if they continue to put on this enemy dress.

Cheating game: What helped them to understand this Brahminical cheating game is our parliamentary democracy which promised each individual one vote to decide their future. If they put on the borrowed dress he/she will be only helping the tiny upper castes — led by Brahmins.

So the credit goes to India’s parliamentary democracy (our political system) for inventing this wonder weapon of “caste” which helped them to assert their ethnic identity. And that identity is our caste.

Cross-thread marxists once waged a war against this very caste (but not the caste system) and soon they got wiped out. The same cross-threadwalas later re-incarnated as Hindu terrorists and tried to hinduise us by trying to destroy our identity and drowning us in the boiling cauldron of Brahminism.

The Bahujans (85%) who consider the 15% Brahminical upper castes as their oppressors understood this game and refused to get fooled. In fact, our unlettered, “poor” Bahujans (the original inhabitants of India) have better native common sense than their “educated” ethnic brothers. Go to any village, people there suffer from no confusion. Every one in the village stays within his/her caste sector. There is a dedicated area for each caste. Each one is called by his caste name. Every new comer is first asked to disclose his caste. It is so even today. There may not be any trust between the castes but at the same time there is no clash also except in very rare cases. A Khairlanji in a village is once a blue-moon day.

Caste division killing BJP: Caste is getting strengthened because our electoral system, assuring one person one vote, allowed each caste to mobilise itself on caste basis. No doubt such a caste mobilisation has helped the numerically larger castes. But the first blow it inflicted was on Brahmins who are thrown out of politics.

Even the Hindu terrorist party (BJP) which wants to hinduise the Bahujans — meaning killing their identity — is itself divided on caste basis.

The Gujarati Ghanchi, Narendra Modi of BJP, is hated by the powerful upper caste Patels and Brahmins. Vaidik Vajpayee is not ready to vacate his seat despite reaching the dying stage to Sindhi Khatri L.K. Advani because of caste rivalry. Every party is caste divided.

Caste division is not confined to only political parties. The Supreme Court upper caste judges fought with their back against the wall to keep out the dark-skinned Dalit, Justice Balakrishnan, now made Chief Justice causing unbearable heart-burning.

At the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore,  hailed by the Brahminical fellows as the greatest temple of scientific learning, two Brahmin professors caused suicide of a Dalit PhD scholar. (DV Sept.16, 2007 p. 5: “Brahminical racism in Indian Inst. of Science”).

Bhoosuras promoting casteism: Defence forces are steeped in caste politics, so too our universities. Even the much adored corporate sector.

In a way such a caste hatred is helping the “low castes”, who are hardly casteists, to go back to their caste cell and be a casteist. It is the Brahminical Bhoosuras who are converting India into a caste cauldron — and thereby digging their own grave.

Solution: Even the three egalitarian non-Hindu religions — Islam, Christianity and Sikh — are also caste-divided.

India has only one ideology and that is “casteology”.

As long as the Brahmins (3%) continue to suppress the Bahujans by destroying their identity, the latter will hit back and come out victorious by resorting to caste weapon.

Did we not say “caste kills the casteists?”

The best and the only solution to end this endless caste hatred is giving each caste (or subcaste) its due. Proportional representation. Each caste must gets its share in proportion to its population. Until this is met India will continue to boil in its caste cauldron.

Can anybody with a sense have any objection to proportional share and representation which is also the essence of democracy? What else can be the measuring rod for proportional share in this multi-national India except caste? Will somebody answer?
