It's really heartbreaking to see the mentality of an educated person still being in the 18th century. For your kind information, there is the "INDIAN MARRIAGE ACT" to take care of such inter-caste marriages. And also please do remember, we are a sovereign, secular and democratic country.

That speaks of our evaluating humanity by the money factor.
