India's liberal democratic politics is now
accommodating dalit assertion very
positively.mayavati's electoral victory explains the
success of indian liberal democray's grassloot level
assertion.the post-independent politics of 1950 had
given benefits to uppercastes.after 1970's obcs
captured a new space.after1990,dalits played a
dominant role in indian politics.this is a very
positive step.what we are witnessing the flexibility
of dalit parliamentary politics.they can accommodate
even the brahmanical forces for political
mobilisation.caste based ritual hegemony has changed
into new a new community level political
mobilisation.Mayavati knows this factor very well. and
brahmanical forces has accepted this reality as well.
