Not enough coverage to show a caste split

Caste is derived from elector and relative names, and resolves for only 4.88% of West Bengal's 58,03,577 deleted electors (2,83,294 rows). A share calculated from that sample would describe the sample, not the state, so it is withheld rather than shown with a caveat.

Charts appear once coverage reaches 30%.
