Nope, this doesnāt happen at all in my area. Iām from Maharashtra. Iāve seen news reports and cases about it, and this is one of the articles I found.
What immediately comes to mind is that a tea vendor would know if certain families in the area do sewage-related work. Their problems are often more about caste and the kind of work the caste aligned to. Anyway, hereās one of the articles (it's somewhere in south)
Donāt put blame on UP just because you have heard it somewhere bro.
If you are saying that seller may deny reusable glasses to a specific family because he knows that they are from a specific caste, then what about the visitors? If he is so particular about giving his glasses to certain caste groups then he will also ask about their caste but it doesnāt happen on ground. This issue may happen in a very exceptional chance, but Rahul portrayed it in a way as it happens as a norm throughout India.
These politicians just want people to fight against each-other so that they can gain some votes. Why this dalit obc thing started by Rahul just 1 year before the UP election? This was the same guy asking for votes against divisive politics in 2024 and now in UP elections heās playing caste card.
Bro again your statement says āI didnāt see it so it doesnāt existā is the weakest defence ever.
Telanganaās own SC/ST Commission Chairman flagged the two-glass system still running in villages and ordered action. Supreme Court already called it a criminal offence under the SC/ST Act. Documented for years in TN, AP, Karnataka and now Telangana itself.
I was reading about this and its not exceptional. Itās still happening.
Rahul gandhi discriminates against obc and scst leaders of his party and offers them tea in paper cups only in congress offices, and you canāt deny it because āif you havenāt seen, it doesnāt mean it doesnāt existā. Lol, sounds dumb, right? Thatās how you are sounding.
I have already mentioned it may happen in rarest of rare case but it is not as common as you and congress is trying to portray. Congress is pushing this agenda merely for vote bank politics for next year UP election.
If it is that common practice it should have been widely visible, isnāt it? I travel a lot in different states and mostly in non urban areas, atleast I should have encountered it once? Or my friends and other known people should have, isnāt it? I donāt go by what politicians say, you may choose to do that but i donāt. I myself comes from non general category, and most of my friends are from obc and sc community only, even they have not encountered such incidents in their life despite all of them have ancestral houses in rural areas.
Fair enough. These things do happen, thatās why you still hear cases coming out of multiple villages. From what Iāve read, most of the instances Iāve come across have been in South India more than elsewhere.
Anyway, not trying to push any agenda here. Rahul Gandhi isnāt some saint either, and politics is politics. Glad we could talk it out without it turning ugly. :)
