Could something analogous be going on in India (with the lower castes in the place of immigrants), in that the ultra-rich people manage to avoid paying taxes commensurate to their wealth by making public policy debate focus on DEI or affirmative action programs?

Yes that's what happens in here

The kind of social security system you're talking about would be the best for India. But that would take 3-4 decades to be fully functional considering the usual rise in communal riots

But neither of the parties (BJP or Congress) would do that because they just want to make the votebank happy who are mostly the uneducated ones in towns, slums and villages

The politics in this country is fkn cinema atp! They wouldn't spend a single penny for the ones who think rationally before voting someone
