Caste identities in Delhi Assembly stay uniform

Upper castes make up roughly 30 to 35% of Delhi’s voting population and since 1993, have held on average 45% of the seats in the Assembly. Their representation briefly declined to 37% in 2008, in the third term of Sheila Dixit, but surged again in subsequent elections, alongside the rise of the AAP.
