Answer 1

The reasons j h r the decline of the caste system are

(i) Many political leaders and social reformers like

Mahatma Gandhi and Jotiba Phule worked to end the caste system in India. They worked to establish a society where every person is treated equally irrespective of his caste.

(ii) Due to such measures and due to increase in education and awareness, the caste system is on the decline in India. With economic development, urbanisation and growth in literacy, the old ideas of the caste system are breaking down.

(iii) Now, the capability of a person is more important, than his caste. The opportunities availahle to people do not differentiate on the basis of caste anymore.
