'Jat Factor' In Haryana Politics - Will Caste Pivot The Poll Outcome?


Haryana elections are just three days away, with an enormous importance attached to the polls. Firstly, it is the first set of elections after the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, which saw the BJP coming back to power but with a reduced mandate. In Haryana, Congress and BJP were even-stevens with five seats each. Haryana is known as the Jat land because of the underlying predominance of the Jat community in the small state, but there are OBCs, Dalits and other communities too. who have a say. The political rhetoric of 36 communities - '36 biradari' - is what every party has spoken about in the campaign, all while explicitly making their outreach to specific vote banks clear. Will the Jats remain the pivot of poll outcome in Haryana this time? How does the Jat versus non-Jat divide play out on the ground?
