Abstract
This article examines the impact of Punjab’s caste-system on voting behavior emerging from 2013 Pakistan’s general elections. Historically, the caste and Biradari system have been playing a significant role in the region of the Punjab since the arrival of Aryans. The historical evolution and modernization of the British Raj never fully changed the traditional value-system of the Punjabi society which is based on caste and biradari. With particular reference to caste and Biradari system, an analytical study has been made to understand deep roots of Caste-System and its impact on the voting behavior of four selected districts of the province of Punjab in 2013 general elections of Pakistan. Further, this research shows that the Punjabi society is based on multiculturalism and social diversification with parochial political culture; therefore, the Punjabi society accepts authoritarian rule which begins from family and ends at national politics.
