Detailed Solution

Caste-based politics helped people from Dalits and Other Backward Castes to gain better access to decision-making.
It also has some negative aspects when casteism is practised at an extreme in politics. But, it can help bring lower castes into the circle of politics and help them access decision-making. It gives them the space to demand their share of power, resources, and opportunities. People belonging to lower caste communities can use their political power to provide resources and opportunities to people of their castes. They can address and represent their problem and help to eradicate oppression and discrimination against their caste. Caste-based politics also serve a positive function for lower and oppressed castes.
