Decline of the caste system in India :


(i) Efforts of social reformers like Phule, Gandhiji,  Ambedkar against caste system have helped to  promote a casteless society.



(ii) Economic development has reduced the  emphasis on caste.



(iii) Large scale urbanisation has diminished the  awareness of caste, as people rub shoulders in  buses, trains and offices.



(iv) Growth of literacy and education has helped to  decrease the belief in caste.



(v) Occupational mobility is possible now and  children are not compelled to continue the  profession of the family or father.



(vi) Weakening of the position of landlords in the  villages has led to decline of the rigid caste  barriers in villages
