Answer:

The Caste System of India. Caste not only dictates one's occupation, but dietary habits and interaction with members of other castes as well. Members of a high caste enjoy more wealth and opportunities while members of a low caste perform menial jobs. Outside of the caste system are the Untouchables.

Factors responsible for the flexibility of the caste system in India are:

  • Modern education propagated by the British government has changed the mindset of people who believed that caste is related to karma.
  • Industrial growth led to the establishment of new livelihood opportunities which has diluted the rigid caste system
  • New township and cosmopolitan culture have diluted the social and cultural fabric.
  • Modern means of transport and communication ended the age-old system of untouchability.
  • The new legal system has raised awareness and ended discrimination among people.
