Brahmins (210), Muslims (19), SCs (17)!!!
One group has ruled India for a few centuries. The other group has been the social leaders for many more centuries.
Now the (dalit) Rani riding high on her elephant is graciously offering them (more than a fair share) a seat at the high table, provided she is made the high priest. The pyramid is inverted and a giant leap for social evolution!!!
This rainbow coalition must be driving the caste-hustlers nuts.
This Lok Sabha election, the elephant will seek to trample the opposition with the power of Muslim-Brahmin combination. In a tactical shift, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati on Thursday decided to give a larger chunk of seats to Brahmins (21) and Muslims (19) in comparison to what she did in 2009 Lok Sabha election, when 20 Brahmins and 14 Muslims got the BSP ticket. The higher allocation of seats to the two communities has thus decreased the number of OBCs, who are ostensibly being wooed by both Samajwadi Party and the Bharatiya Janata Party.
The move to give more seats to Muslims is seen as an attempt to woo the community in the wake of west UP riots that claimed the lives of around 60 people, ostensibly from the minority. The lesser number of seats allocated to OBCs is seen also as a shrewd move of Mayawati given the fact that the community is already divided between SP and BJP. The BSP chief also decided to field 17 SCs, eight Thakurs and seven women candidates.
