BJP's Bihar Caste Calculus: Social Engineering at Play in First Candidate List | India Today

This special report decodes the Bharatiya Janata Party’s caste calculus in its first list of 71 candidates for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. The analysis highlights that ‘more than 50% of tickets have gone to candidates from Dalits, deprived, backward, extremely backward and women communities.’ The list showcases a strategic social engineering effort by the BJP to balance representation across various social groups. It includes a significant number of candidates from OBC and EBC communities, alongside a strong presence from upper castes like Bhumihars, Rajputs, and Brahmins. The report delves into how this careful selection aims to consolidate the party’s vote bank by appealing to diverse caste and community aspirations in a state where electoral politics is heavily influenced by social equations.
