He criticized the ruling party for prioritizing caste considerations over merit, which he argued has weakened the effectiveness of administration and public service delivery. Akhilesh Yadav highlighted instances where key positions were allegedly allocated based on caste affiliations rather than competency, asserting that this approach has created inefficiencies and biased policymaking.

The Uttar Pradesh government's decision to ban caste-based displays, including vehicle stickers and public signboards, has been welcomed by Brahmin and Kshatriya organizations. They view the move as a step toward reducing caste-based divisions and promoting social harmony. The ban aims to prevent public gatherings organized along caste lines, which authorities argue disturb public order. However, OBC groups have expressed concerns that the ban targets their mobilization efforts. They argue that caste identity is crucial for political representation and that the ban could undermine their ability to organize and advocate for their communities. The debate highlights the complex dynamics of caste in Indian politics and the challenges in balancing social equality with political representation. #CasteDisplayBan #BrahminKshatriyaSupport #OBCConcerns #SocialEquality #PoliticalRepresentation #UPPolitics #CastePolitics #PublicOrder #CommunityMobilization #newsone
