Inter-caste marriages may one day ensure that people no longer caste their vote

Union of India

-The Times of India, February 1, 2012

Through an example of his 23-year-old Oriya domestic helper, Maya, and her marriage with a Punjabi Sikh, Jug Suraiya argues that the ongoing caste-based politics may in a few years find no takers due to such inter-caste marital links that promote integration as opposed to division.

"Will such marital links help one day to bridge the barrier of caste and region and promote integration? If they do, the Indian Union will truly come into its own, thanks to unions of another sort."
