In this exclusive interview with National Herald, Dilip Mandal talks about the importance of caste based census, how the Modi government have been avoiding the caste based census and why. “RSS-BJP’s politics is based on the Hindu-Muslim binary. They will pit a consolidated “virat Hindu” idea against the Muslims and create a hate and fear narrative. But this ‘virat Hindu’ identity don’t work if its internal caste fault lines are exposed,” he says.
