Why does the caste system persist in India?
What are some of the consequences of having a caste system?
The caste system is a form of social inequality that has resulted in widespread discrimination, prejudice, and violence against people belonging to lower castes. It prevents social mobility and denies people equal opportunities to education, employment, and basic human rights. It has also led to a wide wealth gap and social unrest in the country.
