3000 castes and 25000 sub-castes
Indians introduced it.
There are five levels: Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudra, and Harijans. Each of these castes is referred to as a jati. People are expected to live the entirety of their lives within their castes; there is no change in fate. This system has been enforced in India for ages and has instilled a sense of expectancy in its people.
The Harijans are the schedule castes or low castes in India.
The castes are known as varnas. The lowest of these are not allowed to associate with the people who are part of the higher castes.

India has a complex caste system with thousands of castes. Estimates suggest there are over 3,000 distinct castes, but the number can vary depending on different classifications and regional variations. The Census of India recognizes around 1,600 Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, along with numerous Other Backward Classes (OBCs). The total number of castes can be quite fluid due to social changes and local distinctions.
