[@PankajKumar-ej5dt]

Because if you refuse it you'll be labelled as a casteist. No one wants this label even in a civilized discussion. Because it might get uncivilized very easily. I see casteism more as a struggle for dominance among different communities which happen anywhere in the world. You won't find a place without a hierarchy. Atleast not on this earth. The basic instinct of most humans is to prevail over one another. You find that even in a family with many children.

[@praj...9386]

I totally agree with her views beacuse it happened to very close person in our family that she married to a SC guy highly educated and working in a reputed PSU but still her sister is getting divorced beacuse she married to him. Is their any logic for giving devoce but unfortunately that's the fact in todays 2023 India. However and whatever we say, not all but the majority of Indians have it in their minds all the time. We only speak about removing reservations but what about our mental reservations and discriminations. Thanks Ranveer for focusing on every aspects of society to be better human being firstly beacuse whenever we must have came on earth their was no religion and caste. It's all humanely made. People forget its the only Earth we share in common. That's it..😊

[@zensurgery2755]

Let me tell you the bitter truth. Caste is the biggest culprit that is restricting the India’s and Indians growth both in mindset and as in whole nation. Not everyone agree to this, however, caste pride, feeling caste supremacy over other caste itself against the core principles of human rights. Many Hindus not able to see through this problem or may be don’t want to to consider mainly because it hurts their ego, they want someone to look down. Asking caste before renting, offering job, collaborating for business, caste politics inside institute and private colleges. It’s pathetic to see how as a kids in school we all used to hangout with all of our friends dint think about caste that time but as time passed we enter college and degree colleges we started making groups based on caste in hostels. Villages are further separated based on caste. Girl being murdered by a father because she wants to marry guy from a other caste and guy being assaulted and even killed by because of intercaste marriages etc. caste runs in our subconscious of Indian society. This is the problem that we need to tackle from questioning. This is also a reason why many minorities are converting to other religion. Unity of Hindus lies in eradication of caste system. Otherwise Hindus will keep fighting within.

It's a very complicated issue & not only complicated but multi dimensional. Even the cases of women vs men are very biased. Sons are given more value over daughters. Sons are sent to english medium pvt. Schools n daughters to govt. Ones. I know families like this. I'm sure this issue can't be compared to this caste issue which is very broad issue.

There is no justification for discrimination based on Varna or Jati (I avoid the alien word Caste) and it is appalling to treat any human being badly just based on their birth. Having said that, the situation quite often is completely opposite.

In many instances of "caste" violence, it is ironically the so called backward castes who are the perpetuators. In this respect, what she is saying is not the complete picture.

Hindu gali and Muslim houses can still be kept separate in some areas; here is why- North India has lost its temple town/villages and what is in good shape is maintained by ASI as heritage monuments. However, in South India- esp TN- temple towns, villages still have living traditions and the township is still having mada-veethi and agraharams. However, muslim occupancy in agraharam disrupts the Hindu living and ecosystem esp when they slaughter goats and cook them. The sanctity of the temple is getting lost. Let us understand- temples are sacred only when they are maintained. And if we want to preserve certain oral traditions and ethnicity, we have to respect that community’s spaces. Chidambaram is a classic example of how a Govt can disrupt because of a political ideology not showing cultural tolerance. I am not against being inclusive or being tolerant- I cant see one community having to suffer more.

The perception of the caste system in India is a Western idea (actually a Middle Eastern concept of a society that migrated to India). The Indigenous communities had community-based systems ex. Tamil society from its ancient times (2000BC at least on record) had divisions of lands as five different biomes (thinai), 1 Kurinji (Forest) 2 Palai (Desert), 3 Mullai (mountainous), 4 Marutam (Agricultural field and plains), 5 Neital (Coastal) and people were classified to these 5 major biomes and accordingly, their lifestyle based on their occupational choices. The community system allowed people to be in any occupation and switch from the occupation done by their parents and also had full flexibility to move to a different biome. This flexibility allowed each community to migrate to any part of the Tamil kingdom or even migrate to other Tamil kingdoms. When the caste system was brought in by the Western communities from the Middle East (sometimes referred to as the Aryan invasion) into the Indian continent they first associated themself with the rulers who also had invaded India from the Middle East and then created new religions and languages (Sanskrit - an Indo European language), they turned the community (flat system) to the caste system (pyramid-shaped) and self-claimed themself to be on the top of the Pyramid. Also, they locked the flexibility of a person moving from one community to another community - and made sure a person born into a family inherits the father's profession so that the top of the pyramid stays at the top forever. This is the significant difference between community system of ancient India vs. the caste system. The changes from the community-based Indian society to a rigid caste-based society happened just before the invasion of colonial invasion of European countries. By the 14th century, all the Tamil Kingdoms were wiped off the Indian map by North Indian Sultans or by Telugu Kingdoms that accepted Sanskritization completely into their language and culture. British, French, Dutch, Portuguese, and others only reached India by sea after the caste system had been replaced by the community system and they didn't understand the historical perspective and migration that happened from the Middle East through landmass from the west.

This is what happens when you are brainwashed with this "Aryan-Dravidian" nonsense you study in Tamil Nadu State board. Unfortunately, only Tamil people managed to get fooled and get fooled year after year by parties like DMK.

[@parameshwar3345]

Ancient Tamil society and Ancient north indian society are completely different.

[@pacifront83]

This is wildly false, and most of the people in the sub-continent have west Eurasian dna, so we are obviously an amalgamation of east and western races/ethnic/tribes.

In my village Dalits themselves practice casteism. Chamar caste of dalit will never allow valmiki caste of dalit to enter their house

[@neutralboi1984]

Just shows how ingrained is the system in their minds by higher authority

[@nareshkumar3526]

Wrong, it is just in marriage. I'm from Jatav, We are more close to valmiki, as compared to savarn to jatavs.

Now the people who don't even know what it is like when someone tries method f knowing your caste and the pressure on that dalit person how he would react and also the person will show sympathy and can say sorry(ki bhai mujhe nhi pta tha) , insaan ka confidence khatam hojata h or especially mandir koi puchhle ki konsi jaati se ho for example Tamil Nadu , UP ,Haryana not even allowed to sit on same bench. Now govt and these aachrya says Hindu dharma me toh jaativaad tha hi nhi kabhi bhi nhi tha ,But now you search the difference between sanskrit and prakrit language in Hinduism so you will get the answer. They say ki dalits ki glti h wo dharma change krte but in reality hm logo k mandir jaane se bhgwan ashudh hojaate h toh usko bhi spiritual journey start toh krni hi hai usne wo jagah dekhi jaha uske mandir jaane se frk nhi pdta kisi ko

Ok, this is some real BS that I am listening on this show lately! Dalits are not allowed to wear shoes? You are kidding me? I come from a village, where I grew up most of my life, never heard of this! So, don't whip up BS that is not real. May be in some corner of India this happened, but don't claim whole of India is like this! Too bad guys, this channel is losing its value lately!

Yes You live in one village for almost all your live. What about hundred others that isn't in your knowledge. Progress comes only after acceptance of our drawbacks. We need look beyond what lies in our vicinity.

[@iBharadwaj]

This anti-upper caste narrative of mainstream media must be broken down. Being a Brahmin and having lived in village for many years I can say with certainty that there are many Brahmins who are too poor to buy a cotton saree. Also nowadays I see many so called lower caste families having all sons and daughters as Govt officers whereas Brahmins still have to struggle for mediocre private jobs forget about Govt jobs. The worst thing for me was when I came to Delhi to prepare for civil services, only thing I read in Indian social history is that Brahmins are the root cause for all the evils of Hindu society. My fellow aspirants, specially so called 'vanchit varg' and coaching teachers would constantly abuse and mock Brahmins/Pandits. These noida channels aren't aware of changing ground realities of caste discrimination.

[@dariyababumalapati7144]

It does. And this is the hard reality we have to accept in order to change it. Some are not even allowed to style their hair in any way they want. It has to be choppy (for male).
