What is the Caste of Ravish Kumar?



Ravish Kumar is one of the most prominent anti BJP journalists of India. It may be cruel to write journalist and the name of the party in the same line, but that is a sad reality. Ravish used to be a very good anti Establishment journalist. However, over time, he changed the tack.

Ravish Kumar is undoubtedly a superstar. He is a self – made man. He has also developed a habit of talking about caste. During ground reporting, he asks for the caste of people when he finds their response in support of Narendra Modi.

Gone are those golden days when his Ravish Ki Report used to be an honest attempt to question the Government of the day.

In this caste conundrum, one wonders about his caste.

The full name of Ravish Kumar is Ravish Kumar Pandey. He is basically from Motihari, Bihar.

Looking at his surname, you may think him to be a Brahmin.

That is not the case.

Ravish Kumar is a Bhumihar by caste.

His brother Brijesh Kumar Pandey is a senior Congress leader who was once involved in a rape case of a teen Dalit Girl.
