>>> Credit goes to the Govt. that 90% people in the country vote on the basis of caste. For last 65 years, Govt. has trained people for the sake of votes to take caste seriously by using caste (as OBC and SC) in quotas in education, jobs and promotions etc. A couple of years ago, Govt. went even further and introduced caste in census to keep the votes rolling in elections.

Perhaps the remaining 10% people vote on the basis of religion, probably keeping in mind that Govt. has got them religious laws and subsidies to make holy pilgrimages, etc.
