steps taken before independence

Many social reformers recognized the evils of the caste system and efforts were made to put an end to this evil at various times in our history.

Gautam Buddha founded a religion that did away with the caste system. Saints like Shankaracharya began the Bhakti Movement as an attempt to end this social evil. Other great men like Ramanand, Kabir, Guru Nanak, Chaitanya Mahaprbhu all tried to remove the barriers of caste and reform the society.

During the British rule social reformers like Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar, Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Swami Dayanand Saraswati and Jotiba Phule all began movements to awaken the people against casteism.

steps taken after independence

With the growth of education, people have acquired greater awareness and caste system is not followed so rigidly today, particularly in the urban areas. The development of science and technology and progress in industry along with the impact of various movements for social reforms has made changes in the outlook of the people.

The pressures of modern life along with progress in methods of transport and communication do not allow those ancient prejudices to continue. For example, students belonging to many different castes study together in schools, colleges, and universities. Travelling in trains, buses, and planes, and eating in restaurants with a vast cross-section of people has made it difficult for such outdated practices to continue.

The Constitution of India also declares the practice of untouchability and caste discrimination of any kind illegal. The State is suppose to provide equal opportunities for all the citizens of India in matters of education or employment. No one can be prevented from using public facilities like wells, water tanks, or denied entry into temples, hotels, cinema halls, and restaurants on the ground of caste or religion.
