There is no one reason; there are many factors.

The first important thing to realise is that there has never been 'equality' in India or any of the individual states of India. (Depending on what you mean by 'equality'/'inequality', you could also argue that there has never been total equality anywhere in the world, ever.)

Those who have been in power have never wanted total equality, and have done little to try to realise it.

Inequality is traditional in India (and in some of the religions practised in India).

India is vast spatially and in population. The project of creating 'equality' is such a long-term project that any politician in power that attempted it would be long out of office and probably dead before it could be completed.

Humans are intrinsically greedy and selfish - that is how people survive.

The reasons go on and on. More interesting questions are what you mean by equality and why you expect it.
