Social equation

Sasaram constituency is dominated by Kushwahas, as a result of which, from 1980 to 2015, in all the assembly elections, only candidates belonging to this caste have been elected from this constituency. The victory of Ram Sewak Singh in the 1980 Bihar Legislative Assembly election was followed by victory of only Kushwaha candidates from this seat and from the 1990 onwards, the first as well as second runner-ups were also from the same caste. As a result of this, all the political parties started fielding only those candidates, who belonged to this caste group.[3]
