Commanding in its scope, revelatory and unsparing in argument, Republic of caste amounts to a new map of post-Independence India. Anand ‘Teltumbde identifies the watershed moments of its journey: from the adoption of a flawed Constitution to the Green revolution, the OBC upsurge and rise of regional parties, up to the Nexus of neoliberalism and Hindu TV a in the present day. As a politics of symbolism exploits the fissile nature of caste to devitalise India’s poorest, Teltumbde’s damning analysis shows progressive politics a way out of the present impasse.
