Lucknow: In a state where opposition parties are trying to lure the core vote bank of the ruling party, the Bhartiya Janta Party has started preparations to include 39 castes in the list of Other Backward Castes (OBC) in the State.
Political Pundits claim the aforementioned as a strategic move to solve all the ill-equations made by the opposition. As per the media reports, the Chairman of the State Backward Classes Commission, Jaswant Saini, has said that the commission will soon send a recommendation in this regard to the Uttar Pradesh government.
The 39 castes which may be included in the OBC list are Bhutia, Agrahari, Dosar Vaish, Jaiswar Rajput, Ruhela, Muslim Shah, Muslim Kayastha, Hindu Kayastha, Barnwal, Kamalapuri Vaish, Core Kshatriya Rajput, Dohar, Ayodhyawasi Vaish, Kesarwani Vaish, Bagwan, Omar Bania, Mahour Vaish, Hindu Bhaat, Bhatt, Goria, Bot, Panwaria, Umaria, Nowana and the Muslim Bhat.
Commission has indicated that the work of survey of castes is going on continuously on the basis of the representation. A Survey of 24 castes has been done, while 15 castes are yet to be done.
The inclusion of Bhatt Brahmins can be a masterstroke by the Yogi government to send a positive message to unhappy Brahmin voters.
