How do you move up in an Indian caste system?
In the Indian cast CASTE system you are borne into your cast ASTE (you inherit your cast ASTE from your parents). There is no way you can change your cast CASTE in your life time, indeed the Mahābhārata tells Hindus that to try and do so is to upset the cosmic balance.
Hindus believe that they are reincarnated when they die and that if they have lead a good life they will be reborn in the next life into a higher cast CASTE.
While the concept of cast CASTE runs against much of modern thinking it is important to recognize that the religion is theologically rich and mature, very ancient an very successful.

How is the Hindu belief of Karma related to the caste system?
(This has been remade and made better, original answer: it has to do with the gov't. spred the love -Sassycat000126)
Karma and the Caste system are related because Karma means a good life and which that relates to Reincarnation because the higher Karma you have, the more of the chance you will live again from Reincarnation,
an answer for how does Reincarnation and the Caste system relate: The same between the caste system and reincarnation is when a person is born in a certain caste. 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.

Who introduced the caste system to India?
The Caste System developed in South India and was brought by south Indians to the north. The rules of the Varnas (social division); the Varnas got stricter, then the social order became more complex. The rulers decided to divide the people into five groups, that's now called the caste system. 1.Brahmins were at the top because they were the priests. 2. Then it was the Kshatriyas because they were rulers and warriors. 3. Then it was the vaisyas which were the farmers and the traders. 4. Then it was the sudras which were workers and servants. 5. Lastly, it was the untouchables which used to do all the dirty work that people did not want to do like disposing dead animals.. Hoped it helped ;) - Emma-
