Answer:
The
caste system specifies the work that will be done by people depending on their
caste. Every caste group has its own exclusive occupations that will be passed
from generation to generation. However, due to increase in education and
literacy, increased urbanisation and various reform measures, the caste system
is declining in India.
Though the caste system is declining, it has not disappeared completely
from the country. Even now, marriages are performed in the same caste. People
from different castes do not interact with each other and un touch ability is
still present in some parts of the country.
The upper caste people who got good education under the
old caste system got top job positions. The castes that did not receive education
lagged behind in getting the top job positions. Due to this, the people from
the upper castes became economically better than the people from the lower
castes.
