define vote bank? what were the reasons for the decline or break of the caste system in morden India?

Answer 1

A votebank (also spelled vote-bank or vote bank) is a loyal bloc of voters from a single community, who consistently make back a certain candidate or political formation in democraticelections. Such behaviour is often the result of an expectation of real or imagined benefits from the political formations, often at the cost of other communities. Votebank politics is the practice of creating and maintaining votebanks through divisive policies. As it encourages voters to vote on the basis of narrow communal considerations, often against their better judgement, it is considered harmful to the principles of representative democracy.
