    This is a greatest Blot on India is its Caste System . India is still a backward nation because of Casteism . Caste-based discrimination is a complex and deeply ingrained issue in Indian society. Efforts to combat it require not only legal and policy changes but also changes in societal attitudes and norms. Many individuals and organizations are actively working to raise awareness, challenge discrimination, and promote equality and social justice in India. Caste-based discrimination not only affects a person's access to education, employment, and social opportunities but also results in social ostracism and psychological trauma. The stigma associated with lower castes persists, and there have been instances of violence against those who challenge the system. Fortunately, the Constitution was crafted by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. Had it been Gandhi or the RSS, casteism might have found a place as a constitutional right

    in the forgone times these Koraga community, Dalits, SC etc, suffered lot by way of distancing them from society and forced to a dirty job of collecting human waste and other inferior menial jobs. Wedding time they were allowed to collect left out/waste food. In spite of Govt. efforts to do away with such class/creed barriers, upper class people still treat them like salves and untouchables !
