With just a day to go for the third round of polling of the Lok Sabha election, battle lines are drawn in Madhya Pradesh’s Gwalior-Chambal region with caste equations and triangular fights spicing up the contests.
The region comprises the Morena, Bhind (Scheduled Caste) and Gwalior seats, and parts of the Guna Lok Sabha constituency. The Other Backward Classes (OBCs) form the largest chunk of the electorate here, followed by the Scheduled Castes (SCs).
However, in Morena, the Kshatriya community has been in a deciding position thanks to political rivals Tomars and Sikarwars.
