Question

in what ways do you think did the caste system promote inequality among people

Answer 1

Hey mate!

Caste system promoted unequality among the people in many ways...

Some points are...

Evil faces of this system

Untouchability

Many villages are separated by caste and they may not cross the line dividing them from the higher castes. They also may not use the same wells or drink in the same tea stalls as higher castes.

Discrimination

They often do not have the facility to electricity, sanitation facilities or water pumps in lower caste neighbourhoods. Access to better education, housing and medical facilities than that of the higher castes is denied.

Division of labour

They are restricted to certain occupations like sanitation work, plantation work, leather works, cleaning streets, etc.

Slavery

They are subjected to exploitation in the name of debt, tradition, etc., to work as labourers or perform menial tasks for generations together.


This is how caste system promoted unequality among induviduals.

Thankyou(+_+)

Answer 2

Explanation:

The caste system is the bane for the Indian society. It divides the Indian society into sectarian groups and classes. ... The people from Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, referred to as 'untouchables' form one-sixth of India's population or 160 million; they endure discrimination and segregation.
