It is shameful that Caste System is still prevalent to some extent in remote villages of states like Bihar, U.P. of India.Poeples of lower castes whom Gandhiji referred to as 'Harijans' are still subjected to untouchability. They are not allowed to enter shrines, draw water from village wells and so on. In fact, they are treated as people of lower strata.Due to their ignorance for illiteracy, governments aids/grants rarely reach their hands. Until the mindset of people is changed and these people are brought to the national mainstream, the situation is unlikely to change in the near future.

The person cannot become a member of another caste. But some say that if that person was good, responsible and well-mannered, He or she could reincarnate (which means to be born again) and be born in a higher class, with a better life.Post remade by William
