Yadavs in Politics

Yadavs are a prominent socio-economic group primarily found in northern India, especially Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. They are traditionally an agricultural community with a strong presence in politics, often advocating for rural and backward classes. Politically, Yadavs have played a significant role in shaping regional political landscapes, supported by parties like the Samajwadi Party and Rashtriya Janata Dal. Their influence stems from community solidarity, social mobilization, and electoral support, making them important players in state and national politics, often shaping policies related to social justice and rural development.
