> The prime minister himself is from the lower caste. This does not change anything. Modi is just a pawn. He does not have any original ideology, he is there for power. Look at the number of brahmins and non-brahmins in the key position in the BJP. Look at the analysis here
https://theprint.in/politics/ambedkar-on-its-agenda-but-bjp-... If you are still not convinced, look at what "Subramanian swamy" had to say when every one in BJP party was changing their twitter profile last name to "chowkidar"(meaning soldier or protector). He said he is a brahmin and its brahmins duty to advice how the country should be run and not be a soldier as vedas consider brahmins as superior to all the other varnas. https://www.indiatoday.in/elections/lok-sabha-2019/story/can... The point is the ideology that is driving BJP is all about bringing back the privilege based on the birth. |

I don't expect him to be post-modernists egalitarian.
However at the same it doesn't mean he can't say his casteist comments openly. ;)
After all, its better if people say it openly so that they can be criticized for their casteist comment. The likes of him is politically insignificant as he is NOT competing in elections.
