U.P. Government Bans Caste-Based Political Rallies

The U.P. government has issued a ban on political rallies centered on caste affiliations. This action is viewed by opposition parties, notably the Congress, as a tactic to silence voices from marginalized communities. The government asserts the ban is necessary to maintain social harmony and prevent potential unrest. The ban restricts the ability of Dalit, backward, and marginalized communities to openly express political views. Legal challenges are anticipated regarding the regulation of this policy.
