You see, we call India a secular nation, and since we are entitled to freedom of equality, the casts system needs change. caste is purely a religious identity, and is mostly considered a highly private part of one's status.
Then why even have a caste? we are assuming that one caste is better off then the other. you see, that's not quite right. the reservation system is supposed to be based on merit , or financial back ground. not a wild guess that just because you're a FC that you always drive in a Mercedes or a BMW!!!
so yes, the Caste System needs a lot of change, or even better, a replacement .

The Caste System does not allow someone born into a lower caste to change their economic standing. Also, you must marry within your caste so there is no way to marry into a better caste.

The caste system is a system that the Aryans made because they disliked the Dravidians very much. It was a system that kept them away from lower caste people. A person could never change the case he was in or he would be called an untouchable or outcaste. I hope that that answered your question.
Buddhism has no belief in caste system. It frankly rejected the caste system.
