Post-political discourse in India has been significantly affected by Dalit politics. To avoid the dispersed social power & disciplinary consequences of civil society, they have reestablished their dialectical mode of operation, albeit with a selective focus on identity politics. Dalit politics must be viewed through a prism that can be termed "politics of aspirations." In different historical periods, the shifting voting patterns of Dalits were a reflection of their changing and evolving goals. These goals have surpassed the old understanding of "identification politics" – in which oppressor caste intellectuals forcefully categorize Dalits. Dalit politics, which pertains to groups formerly considered as Untouchables, is most evident in the growing influence of Dalit political parties in populous North India & in overall Indian politics. In this research paper history and present of Indian Dalit politics will be discussed.
Key words: India, Indian Politics, Culture, Dalit Politics.
