Which caste is majority in Madurai?
Madurai, like much of Tamil Nadu, has a diverse caste composition, and discussing majority/minority in caste terms can be sensitive and complex. However, from a demographic perspective, various communities including Thevar communities (such as Kallars, Maravars, and Agamudayars), Vanniyars, Nadars, Dalits (Scheduled Castes), and other backward classes constitute significant portions of the population. The city has substantial representation from most major Tamil Nadu communities. It's important to note that Tamil Nadu has implemented extensive affirmative action policies with reservation systems, and caste dynamics in urban areas like Madurai are increasingly influenced by education, economic status, and urbanization rather than traditional hierarchies. Modern Madurai is cosmopolitan, with caste becoming less definitive in urban social interactions, though it still influences certain aspects of social organization and politics.
