The NDTV Dialogues: The Re'caste'ing Of Indian Politics
On The NDTV Dialogues this week, our focus is on a tectonic political shift, the victory of President-elect Ram Nath Kovind, a powerful political symbol not just of social empowerment but also the completion of the BJP's identity makeover in many ways. Politically, it is also the first time, that three most important political positions in India, the President, Prime Minister, Vice President are all BJP men and all from backward castes. To discuss what this means for Indian social challenges are Dr Narendra Jadhav, Rajya Sabha MP; Udit Raj Lok Sabha MP, BJP; Ashutosh from AAP; R Balashankar of BJP Central Team on Training & Publication and Debashish Jarariya of the BSP.
