Photograph: ANI Photo After almost 41 days of running a two-minister government, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and his deputy Devendra Fadnavis finally added 18 cabinet ministers, dominated by the dominant Maratha caste in the state. Look at the Shinde cabinet from the lens of caste or which leader got to wield how much influence on its shape and structure it is former chief minister Fadnavis, whose stamp of authority is all pervasive. Caste-wise, 40 per cent, or, seven -- three from the Bharatiya Janata Party and four from Shinde's Shiv Sena -- out of the 18 ministers who were inducted on Tuesday belong to the influential Maratha community: Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil, Chandrakant Patil and Ravindra Chavan from the BJP and Dada Bhuse, Sandipan Bhumre, Tanaji Sawant and Shambhuraj Desai from Shinde's Sena. There are four -- 22 per cent -- OBCs in the new cabinet: Girish Mahajan (Gujar) and Atul Save (Mali) from the BJP and Gulabrao Patil (Gujar) and Deepak Kesarkar (Vaishya) from Shinde's Sena. And then one each from the Scheduled Tribe (Vijaykumar Gavit, BJP), Scheduled Caste (Suresh Khade, BJP), Vimukt Jati Nomadic Tribe (Sanjay Rathod, Sena-Shinde), Marwari Jain (Mangal Prabhat Lodha, BJP), Gaur Saraswat Brahmin (Uday Samant, Sena-Shinde), Komati (Sudhir Mungantiwar, BJP) and Muslim (Abd...

New Delhi: The backlash over a Zomato ad for its alleged casteist content, and the subsequent action by the National Commission for Scheduled Castes, serves as a wake-up call for the Indian advertising industry. It urges them to engage with Indian socio-political realities and not be oblivious to caste. On Tuesday, the food delivery platform was served notice by the National Commission for Scheduled Castes for its ad featuring the character "Kachra". This was a week after Zomato withdrew the ad following a huge backlash over its portrayal of Kachra, drawing parallels with a character of the same name from the movie Lagaan. The ad showed a person, the same actor who played the role in the movie, as a prop like a table or potted plant. An ad meant to promote the message of recycling ended up causing outrage, with many calling it out as dehumanising and insulting to Dalits. It's been a week since Zomato took down the ad, but the issue runs deeper. It is another reminder that advertising in India is often tone-deaf. Brands and businesses need to be more mindful of the country's social context. When US tech giants are showing the willingness to understand caste, and when Indian cinema and OTT shows are attempting to bring in characters from marginalised communities to play inspiring and prominent roles, what is stopping the Indian advertising industry? Zomato Ad - How Not To Be Creative Professor Suryakant Waghmore, who teaches sociology at IIT-Bombay, said the advertising indu...

Secondly and more important to the Fadnavis cause, the BJP the largest political party in the state should continue to play second fiddle to the Sena Shinde faction. Worse from Fadnavis’s perspective Shinde has cited a survey in the advert which says that he is the main choice of Maharashtra with 26.1 per cent preferring him while Fadnavis polls only 23.2 per cent. The solus advertisement couldn’t have been put out by Shinde without the agreement of the BJP top brass in Delhi, so Shinde and the BJP’s top brass in Delhi is telling Fadnavis in no uncertain terms that the ‘CM hopes’ he has nursed so tenderly are unlikely to come true. The hint is to fall in line or else Maharashtra BJP will see significant changes. Fadnavis has rapidly been losing his political capital after he recklessly got himself sworn in as CM for 48 hours and then had to face the ignominy of having to quit sans support. Fadnavis worked single-mindedly to topple the Uddhav Thackeray led MVA (Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi) government managed to do it with Shinde’s help and then was snubbed for his dream job. Fadnavis and his high profile spouse Amruta Fadnavis, who is an ex banker and an aspiring singer, filed an FIR against a dodgy designer who Amruta claimed offered her crores to get her father out of jail. The WhatsApp messages presented in Court left the couple red faced as Amruta says the MVA government should fall.

“ Let me ask you something, Gods! You are supposed to be omnipotent and freely accessible to all. You are said to be completely impartial. What does that mean? That you have never been known to be partial. But wasn’t it you who created both men and women? Then why did you grant happiness only to men and brand women with nothing but agony? Your will was done! But poor women have had to suffer for it down the ages.” Excerpt from the Stri Purush Tulana ( A Comparison Between Men and Women) Remembering the past of feminism in India and attempting to insert oneself into its glorious history would lead one onto the path of a fiery, fierce feminist: Tarabai Shinde. The 19th century witnessed women in the Indian subcontinent having to resist forced widowhood, denial of education, forced marriage, sexual violence within and outside the family, and moralistic definitions of how they must behave both in the private and public sphere. In such a turbulent atmosphere, there was a heretic who dared to speak out against the oppressive structures. She was the harbinger of a revolution, one of the few women who dared to speak out against religion at a time when zealots were many and dissenters were few. She is, as we know it, the first Indian feminist literary critic. Her exposé on the patriarchal setup and stereotypes women were subjected to appeared almost a century before Simone De Beavoir’s The Second Sex, the foundation stone for feminist discourse.

• • Country India Populated states Majority: Minority: Region The Maratha caste According to the Maharashtrian historian B. R. Sunthankar, and scholars such as Rajendra Vora, the "Marathas" are a "middle-peasantry" caste which formed the bulk of the Maharashtrian society together with the other According to Marathas are subdivided into 96 different clans, known as the Shahānnau Kule.

The Kunbis allowed it and the higher status Marathas prohibited it. However, there is no statistical evidence for this.

About the Maratha of the Deccan, the famous historian Sir Jadunath Sarkar wrote, "In India few can be more proud of their legacy as the Marathas as their forefathers measured swords on equal terms with the strongest and beat back the tide of Muslim conquest and defended the independence of their country against all resources of the mighty Emperor Aurangzeb. Their ancestors played a key role in shaping Indian history in its immediate past and that memory is a priceless asset to the Maratha race." After defeating the Marathas in the 1761 Third Battle of Panipat, the Afghan invader, Ahmedshah Abdali, wrote a letter to the then-Jaipur ruler, Madhav Singh. He said, "These dauntless blood-shedders didn't fall short of doing great deeds on the battlefield. It was beyond the capacity of other races to fight like them." The Maratha Kshatriya caste — which is spread over 96 clans in the Deccan and played a key role in bringing an end to Mughal rule in India — is born out of the union of the Kshatriya clans of the Deccan and some Kshatriya/Rajput clans from the north. Scions of Rajput clans like Parmar, Solanki, Chauhan, Yadava, Sisodiya, Gaur, Jadon-Bhatti or Yadavs and Maurya left North India after the Muslim invasions and settled in Maharashtra, before entering matrimonial alliances with the local Kshatriyas. The caste born of this union came to be known as Maratha Kshatriyas or Maratha Rajputs. Many of these North Indian clans took new surnames after migrating to Maharashtra, bas...
