The Sachar Committee's report commissioned by the government of India and released in 2006, documents the continued stratification in Muslim society.
The Muslims too have sections of washermen, tailors, smiths, and other backward castes [39] It is notable that the world-famous Mukhtaran Bibi, who stood up for women, especially the backward-caste women of Pakistan was first raped for walking together with a boy of a 'higher' caste.[40] In modern India there have been brutal clashes amongst Muslims belonging to rival castes.[41]
Among Muslims, those who are referred to as Ashrafs are presumed to have a superior status derived from their foreign Arab ancestry[42][43], while the Ajlafs are assumed to be converts from Hinduism, and have a lower status. In addition, there is also the Arzal caste among Muslims, who were regarded by anti-caste activists like Babasaheb Ambedkar as the equivalent of untouchables[44][45]. In the Bengal region of India, some Muslims also stratify their society according to 'Quoms'[46]. While some scholars have asserted that the Muslim Castes are not as acute in their discrimination as that among Hindus,[38][47] Ambedkar argued otherwise, writing that the social evils in Muslim society were "worse than those seen in Hindu society"[44][45].
