flag Uttar Pradesh bans caste-based rallies and symbols to promote unity, sparking political debate.

flag The Uttar Pradesh government has banned caste-based political rallies and public displays, following an Allahabad High Court directive to remove caste references from official records and public spaces. flag A 10-point order mandates district officials and police to eliminate caste slogans, symbols, and signs from vehicles, notice boards, and social media, with penalties under the Motor Vehicles Act for violations. flag Exemptions apply for cases under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. flag The move aims to maintain public order and national unity, though the Samajwadi Party criticized it as a tactic to suppress criticism of alleged caste-based favoritism, while the government insists the measures are essential to combat discrimination and promote social harmony.
