WoW, So both posts refere to an anti-brahmin bias on NCP part. How far does the rot extend. Was there a Justice Party equivalent in Bombay Presidency?

There are 5 strains of anti-brahminism in Maharashtra
1. 1750, Peshwa took over from Maratha king Shahu
2. 1900, Brahmins prevented Shahu Maratha Maharaja of Kohlapur from being allowed to listen to vedic recital
Unfortunately Tilak supported the brahmins
3. 1948, after Nathuram Godse, Congress incited Marathas to kill brahmins and grab their lands
Over 5000 brahmins burnt alive by Marathas - Justice party never went so far.
4. Ambedkar was very anti-brahmin in his writings and even though he was personally helped by Rajaji, and even married
a brahmin, Net result, Dalits in Maharashtra are anti-brahmin and vote with Marathas even though all
anti-Dalit atrocities are committed by Marathas
5. Shiv sena angle, Kayasthas were in job competition with brahmins
Balasaheb's father was a noted brahmin baiter
