Well Ben, poor are getting screwed everywhere. It must be improved and corrected and most of these uppr caste who screw the poor are "secular". Hindu right wing groups have been working with dalits and tribals for a long time now, by brining into their organisation and making them empowered enough to become priests in temples and most inter-caste marriages in India are found among the much avowed communal Hindu groups. The hyprcitical web churned out since the early 20th century by Congress, commies and like minded powers has seeped into every layer of the society and a part of the mindset of "mainstream" hindus. They use Gandhi to play these dirty games and Congress has been using divide and rule policy for a long time now to ensure it's vote bank. Poor must be taken care of, as must be the Brahmins in many states who constitute the poorest in economic terms. Many dirty things happen in India in the name of rights and votes. People are kept ignorant from learning facts.
