Since the 1960s a new assertiveness has characterized India's
formerly silent majority, the lower castes that comprise more than
two-thirds of the population. Today India's most populous state,
Uttar Pradesh, is controlled by lower-caste politicians, as is
Bihar, and lower-caste representation in national politics is
growing inexorably. Jaffrelot argues that this trend constitutes a
genuine "democratization" of India and that the social and economic
effects of this "silent revolution" are bound to multiply in the
years to come.
