Description
After the rural poor, farmers and the urban middle class, political parties are now seeking to make a vote bank out of migrant manufacturing labourers. However, for migrant workers across industries, political behaviour is fairly similar: it is driven by local traditional politics rather than by issues back home or national discourse. Therefore, the task before parties is not to carve out a fresh vote bank but to reorient conservative politics of caste and religion.
