Indian civilization is firmly entrenched in the caste system. In India, societal stratification is notably based on caste. Caste-based politics dominate Indian politics. The nature, structure, and operation of political parties, interest groups, and all other political formations and their functions are determined by caste. Caste, religion, class, and other divisions within Indian society make it difficult for parliamentary democracy to function as intended. The main goal of this essay is to examine the role caste plays in Indian politics and how this has led to severe concerns and barriers to national integration. Caste and politics are connected in a very special way.
