Detailed Solution

Caste is politicised when new caste groups enter politics. The following are examples of caste politics:
1)      By including surrounding castes or subcastes previously excluded, every caste group aims to grow in size.
2)      Various caste groups must ally themselves with other castes or communities to communicate and negotiate.
3)      "Backward" and "advanced" castes have developed into new caste kinds in the political domain.
The abolition of caste-based discrimination, more dignity, and improved access to land, resources, and opportunities have been demanded by many political and non-political organisations.
