In Hinduism Caste System is very important. Caste system determines what a man should do with his life & how to chose his profession.
Hinduism never forces anyone to do so. Caste system is the issue of pride fro most of the people.
Schedule Castes are those who have surrendered to the authority of the Hinduism. And Schedule Tribes are those who have not submiited themselves to the authority of the Hinduism and instead they preffered staying away from the Hindus rather than surrendering their freedom and liberty.
All the superior castes in Hinduism have a dharma, that is a place and resposibility in society. Do the dalits have a dharma?
Hinduism is the religion that divides families into four castes known as varnas: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and farmers), and Shudras (laborers). These caste divisions are hierarchical and traditionally determined by birth, leading to limited social mobility and interaction among the castes.
Hinduism never believes in forcing people staying in their castes. Rather Castes have become identification of Individual, thus they like to embrace their castes because it brings pride to them.
the people who belonged to the lowest of the four castes in Hinduism that is the shudras were reegarded as the untouchables.
It teaches its followers that they are reincarnated into their caste, so this is where they belong.
