Unless there are political mobilizations, systems do not open up. It can also fossilise caste identities,\u201d Jodka stated. \u201cThe objective of caste census should not be to reinforce caste-based identity or an identity-based imagination of our future. It should be made a part of a narrative around socioeconomic lives. Eventually, the hope is that once there is a level playing field, we can explore transforming identities into citizenship-based social life where everyone feels that they are equal to others.
