Question

Define Caste...??????????​

Answer 1

Answer:

A group of society sharing a common identity. The caste of a person is primarily determined by his/her birth. The system of stratification of society into different divisions is called the caste system.

Explanation:

• There are four divisions of the caste system. These are Brahmin and Kshatriya and Vaishya and Shudras.
• They were subjected to the inhuman practice of untouchability and were called as untouchables.
• That is why social reformers and political leaders like Jyotiba Phule ant B.R. Ambedkar and Mahatma Gandhiji and Periyar Ramaswami Naicker worked and advocated to establish a society in which caste inequalities are absent.
• Even though the caste system has been abolished by the Constitution of India giving equal rights to all the natives we can still find it seeping deep inside the societies.
• The People still deny touching the avarnas or tribes. Brahmins are ragingly powerful and vocal about their so-called rights.
• This malpractice literally pushes India back in terms of development and economy among all the other countries.
• Indians with an orthodox mindset do believe in the caste system and even want to reinstate it again.
• They also want to regain the privileges their forefathers used to enjoy in the Varna society.
• In modern times every human being is considered to be equal and there is no discrimination of any occupation or skin colour.
• The Despite this fact some people are still inclined to the age-old ideas of the caste system.
• The Caste influences politics and also politics too influence caste systems and caste identities.
• The Constitution of India laid the foundations of policies to reverse the injustices of the caste system and thus prohibited any caste-based discrimination.
• Yet caste has not disappeared from modern India
