Answer:

India is a country that is socially and politically stratified. The caste system in Indian culture is prevailing for ages. The people in the Indian society are divided based on their caste or jobs they do is called the caste system in India. From ancient times, there are four classes of people in Indian society, namely, Brahmans, Kshatriyas, Vaishya, and Shudra. There are many stories about how the caste system originated. Some are historical while some are religious and biological.

According to Rig Veda, the human was formed by, “Purush” by destroying himself. The head was made Brahmans, hands were transformed to Kshatriyas, Vaishyas from thighs, and Shudras from feet. But apart from these four there was one more caste. The brief about them is as follows:

Brahmins: They were considered to be of the highest order in society. They acted as guardians of the religion. They were highly respected and usually perform jobs of teachers, priests, and other respectable jobs.

Kshatriyas: They were placed in second-order after brahmins. They were assigned jobs of warriors or landlords in society. They were well-known for their bravery and courage.

Vaishya: They were people involved in the business. They were merchants, goldsmiths, small traders, and others. They were suppliers of essential commodities in society.

Shudra: They were the people who did menial jobs like laborers, artisans, craftsmen, and others. They were not allowed any formal education of Vedas and were last in order.

Dalits: They were the people engaged in jobs like sweepers, shoemakers, washers, and others. They were also untouchables and were not even treated like humans.

The caste system had a lot of negative impacts. It deprived the citizens of their rights. It hindered their choice of job and education. There were cases of forced conversion of caste and even killings. It divided and distributed the harmony and unity of society. It leads to an inferiority complex among the people of the lower caste. It is a social evil that exploited growth. It has been a cause of constant distress in society.

With the growth of education, science, and technology in India, people are now aware of this evil. With the spread of modernization and urbanization, the effect of the caste system has decreased drastically. With the enhancement of education and efforts of the government, the deep-rooted effect of the caste system is now diminishing to a great extent. Many laws, acts, and bans are being formed by the government for the abolishment of the caste system.

Even after consistent efforts from the government and even citizens, there still is a caste system prevailing in Indian society. The effect is more visible in urban areas as compared to rural areas. The thing to understand here is, until the people understand that this caste system is beneficial for only a few opportunists but not for all, it is hard to end it. Once this is realized, it will welcome true freedom.
