I would think that in paradise there wouldn't be ghettos, or people complaining. It is the Muslim obsession with "losing their identity" that leads to them concentrating into self-created ghettoes . Maybe ghettoes isn't the best word . I should ideally say "areas" or "quarters" . As I told you , nobody minds them , but they mind mixing with others . |

Wouldn't a Brahman be most likely to become MP? Now if a "lower caste" member could become MP, you might have a point... You've got it backwards , haven't you ? Maybe you need to take more of an interest in Indian politics . If there was caste feeling , backward castes would have voted for one of their own , and no Brahmin would have stood a chance . This is already the case in a very large part of India . The voters of Indore do not look at these things , and are relatively unaffected by them , and that is why the current MP retains power . Backward caste MPs are the norm instead of the exception in modern India . Did you not know that ? |

I assumed high castes would be unlikely to vote on lower castes, while the opposite would be less true. Backward caste MPs are the norm instead of the exception in modern India . Did you not know that ? Nope. Do the MPs usually follow higher education, or are they truly the same as their voters? Eg poor uneducated votes on poor uneducated. Here there are hardly lower class people in parliament, so you could generally say lower class votes on middle class. |
