Hinduism is the religion traditionally associated with a caste system. The caste system in Hinduism divides society into four main categories: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and farmers), and Shudras (laborers and servants). Additionally, there is a group known as the Dalits, who historically faced discrimination and were considered outside the caste system.
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.
Another word for religious group could be "faith community" or "religious organization."
A group of religious people is often referred to as a congregation, parish, assembly, or community.
