What were Gandhi's views on the caste system in India?

Answer

From what I have read about Gandhi’s views:

He believed that caste system, or the system of varna that existed was essential for the proper working of society.He also says that the varna of a person need not be birth dependent. A son of one varna can show the characteristic of another.I don't think he thought that varna system was practical in the India of then, as a matter of fact even now. Because the idea behind it long forgotten and class and status in society has come into play.As long as people dont see that each job has it's own respect, the caste system can't prevail.A person belonging to a caste, if he fails to do his duty is not fit for the title of caste.Gandhi’s final say was perhaps that we are all Shudras in the present community.

Both Gandhi and Ambedkar were opposed to caste-oppression, caste-discrimination and committed to transform the socio-economic and political status of untouchables. But their approach was different.

Gandhiji could never reconcile with Ambedkar’s arguments during Simon Commission proceedings for separate political rights for untouchables from that of Hindus. According to Gandhiji the terms of “Communal Award of 1932 will ensure them (untouchables) bondage in perpetuity.’ He asked, “Do you want the untouchables to remain untouchable for ever. What is needed is destruction of untouchability.”
