Caste is still carrying on

Few known journalists opine that if BJP can publicize the OBC caste of its prime minister, then why they are so hesitant to make caste census public. It is irony that media people become party to the agenda of political party. The statement sounds to be very logical, but not at all ethical, ideal and appropriate on journalistic level. The morality of Journalism says that publicity of OBC PM has had castist stink and it was to be condemned, as well as bringing the caste census in public domain will not serve the cause of public and it is also condemnable in the same way.
Industrialization and urbanization automatically cleansed the caste consciousness in our society, even caste marriages have come under decline, but it is only politics, which is day by day nurturing the caste spirit and various dimension of caste vote are being researched out by our election psephologist. This kind of politics make it less competitive and more emotive. I also feel, there is nothing wrong in knowing the figure of caste and community of India, it would give a sociological dimension to the agenda of economic empowerment of millions of downtrodden,
But be sure if it is being made public, it is going to be exclusively utilized by the politicos of the country to make the representative democracy alive.
This sort of democracy neither provide the political opportunity nor the socio economic opportunity on equitable, qualitative and scientific term. Now we have only one thing left, to stop the hypocrisy and convert the Indian democracy into a caste representative democracy. Practically it is there which provides social justice to few representatives only and, masses are being fooled over their emotional attachment. Here political, economic and social empowerment of masses as well as good governance has no scope
