CASTE CENSUS: How to counter the BJP's ambiguous stance and mixed messaging

By Blue India Party 

To counter the BJP's ambiguous stance and mixed messaging on the caste census, a clear and strategic approach is essential. Here are some steps that can be taken:

  1. Consistent Messaging: Ensure that the opposition's stance on the caste census is clear, consistent, and communicated effectively across all platforms. This helps to counteract any confusion created by the BJP's mixed messages.

  2. Fact-Based Communication: Use data and factual information to debunk any misinformation spread by the BJP. Highlight the benefits of a caste census and how it can address social inequalities.

  3. Engage with the Public: Conduct public awareness campaigns to educate people about the importance of the caste census. Use social media, public meetings, and other platforms to reach a wide audience.

  4. Build Alliances: Form alliances with other political parties, social organizations, and community leaders who support the caste census. A united front can amplify the message and put more pressure on the BJP.

  5. Legal Action: If necessary, take legal action to ensure that the caste census is conducted fairly and without obstruction. This can help to counter any attempts by the BJP to block the process through legal means.

  6. Highlight Contradictions: Point out the contradictions in the BJP's statements and actions regarding the caste census. This can help to expose their ambiguous stance and build public skepticism about their intentions.

By adopting these strategies, it is possible to counter the BJP's ambiguous stance and ensure that the caste census is conducted in a transparent and effective manner.

Unveiling the "Real Majority" of India

Unveiling the "Real Majority": Divya Dwivedi’s Critique of the Hindu Majority Narrative * In contemporary Indian discourse, the notion of a "Hindu majority" is often taken as an unassailable fact, with official statistics frequently citing approximately 80% of India’s population as Hindu. This framing shapes political campaigns, cultural narratives, and even national identity. However, philosopher and professor at IIT Delhi, Divya Dwivedi, challenges this narrative in her provocative and incisive work, arguing that the "Hindu majority" is a constructed myth that obscures the true social composition of India. For Dwivedi, the "real majority" comprises the lower-caste communities—historically marginalized and oppressed under the caste system—who form the numerical and social backbone of the nation. Her critique, developed in collaboration with philosopher Shaj Mohan, offers a radical rethinking of Indian society, exposing the mechanisms of power t...

Mallanna Unleashes TRP: A New Dawn for Marginalized Voices in Telangana's Power Game

On September 17, 2025, Chintapandu Naveen Kumar, popularly known as Teenmar Mallanna—a prominent Telugu journalist, YouTuber, and former Congress MLC—launched the Telangana Rajyadhikara Party (TRP) in Hyderabad at the Taj Krishna Hotel. The event, attended by Backward Classes (BC) intellectuals, former bureaucrats, and community leaders, marked a significant moment for marginalized groups in Telangana. Mallanna, suspended from Congress in March 2025 for anti-party activities (including criticizing and burning the state's caste survey report), positioned TRP as a dedicated platform for BCs, Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), minorities, and the economically weaker sections. The party's vision emphasizes "Samajika Telangana" (a socially just Telangana) free from fear, hunger, corruption, and prejudice, with a focus on inclusive development and responsible governance. Key highlights from the launch: Symbolism : The date coincided with Periyar Jayanti and V...
