The strict vigil by EC and paratroppers means that SC/ST and OBC communities will be at ease for the first time in India's history to cast their ballot and make themselves count in India's politics. SC/ST community were always intimidated and forced to stay away from polling and elections in genral. The lack of proper Leadership for the SC/ST comminities was always a handicap and now we can hope for the educated in SC/ST community to come forword and stake claim in Indian Politics.
Looks like UP will have a clean and fail person coming up like we got in Bihar this time with EC's strictness, Mr. Nitish Kumar............................Lets hope for the best

To your question -"So, have the Election Commission's measures inadvertently helped the two parties that claim to champion the cause of the lower castes, especially the BSP?" ..... There is nothing 'inadvertent' about it! Fair and free election keeps democracy on track. What we need to realise is that free and fair elections are also the 'economic engine' for free market based political economy. Now more likely than before, the vast Hindi heartland would ramp up the speed of socio-economic growth.
