Economic & Political WeeklySummary: The release of the caste-wise survey data in Bihar has reignited the debate on the caste-based census and increased government job quotas, particularly for non-General categories through reservations. This resurgence has raised concerns regarding the inequitable distribution of resources, promoting political parties to advocate for proportional representation based on the population size of different castes/social categories. The analysis in this article, using caste-based survey data of Bihar, emphasises the need to address educational disparities and enhance the asset base instead of fixating solely on the politics of proportional share. – Reproduced
