The reasons for the decline of the caste system in India are as follows
1. Modern education:
Modern liberal education introduced into the country by the British has played a crucial role in undermining the importance of caste in Indian social life.
2.Industrialization:
The process of industrialization has affected caste structure to a remarkable extent. Industrial growth has provided new sources of livelihood to people and made occupational mobility possible.
3.Urbanization:
Industrialization has given rise to the process of urbanization. New townships have emerged. The ruralites migrate to these towns in order to avail better employment opportunities.
4.Modern means of transport and communication:
Modern means of transport and communication are instrumental in increasing spatial mobility of the people and thereby put an end to the caste system. Means of transport like train, bus, tram, airplane etc. cannot provide for distinctions between castes, and a leveling effect has been brought into the society.
