The Caste System in India has historical roots that can be traced back to ancient texts like the Rigveda and later religious scriptures such as the Manusmriti. It was further solidified by social practices and the influence of various rulers and dynasties throughout Indian history, including the Maurya and Gupta empires. Additionally, colonial policies during British rule played a significant role in codifying and institutionalizing caste divisions. Various social reformers, such as B.R. Ambedkar and Mahatma Gandhi, later worked to challenge and dismantle the caste system.
