The caste system divides Hindus into four main categories - Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and the Shudras.

In modern India the term caste is used for Jat and also for Varna. The term, caste was used by the British who ruled India until 1947. The British who wanted to rule India efficiently made lists of Indian communities. They used two terms to describe Indian communities.
