The fifth caste, often referred to as the "Dalits" or "Untouchables," exists outside the traditional four-tier Hindu Caste System (Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras). Historically marginalized and subjected to discrimination, Dalits have faced social and economic exclusion. In modern India, efforts have been made to improve their rights and status, although challenges persist. The term "Dalit" itself means "broken" or "oppressed," reflecting their struggle for dignity and equality.
