In Bengal, the Caste System is not as prevalent or rigid as in other parts of India. However, historically, there have been four main castes in Bengal: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and traders), and Shudras (laborers and service providers). It is important to note that these distinctions have become less significant in modern times, with many people in Bengal identifying more with their profession or community rather than their traditional caste.
