And India's literate and educated public is swayed by "ideology", by "ideas", sometimes by "caste or religion".

The intellectual's voice is always to be respected, but that doesn't mean they're always right. Intellectuals are especially snobbish.

They forgot that India is a democracy, because according to them, only Urban India matters as advocated by news channels, as per news channels intellectuals are committing suicide and having sleepless nights, which is what impressed the educated elite, despite "intelligent" people like themselves being the maximum perpetuators of this myth.

A dalit BJP candidate here not only sits on the floor when he goes canvassing to the homes of upper-caste voters, he never forgets to carry a steel glass along to drink tea. Here's why: A dalit using a cup at an upper-caste home would make the utensil "impure".This in an age when ending casteism is the stated mission of all parties.
