It is sad that most hindus do not understand the caste system's original idea and continue to discriminate their own people on outdated and rotten concepts. The original idea of caste system was based on the division of labour based on one's abilities and inclination. At no point was it intended to act as a means of social division. The current face of caste system is largely due to it's manipulation by greedy and self serving politicians and so called holy men. Instead of dumping it, people like Mayawati and countless others are only exploiting the current caste system to grab power and create further divisions in the society. I hope people realise that a nation can progress only when all segments of the society contribute and progress together.
