The Aryan Caste System, originally a division based on occupation and social function, became more rigid and hierarchical over time, solidifying into the four main varnas: Brahmins (priests), Kshatriyas (warriors), Vaishyas (merchants), and Shudras (laborers). With the influence of religious texts like the Manusmriti, these categories became hereditary, leading to the emergence of thousands of sub-castes (jatis). Over centuries, this system contributed to social stratification and discrimination, particularly against those deemed "untouchables." In modern times, social reform movements and legal changes in India have challenged and sought to dismantle these caste-based inequalities.
