I know some people who still think less of those who have talents much above theirs. I have seen some people who even asked me what my caste was and I never gave them the reply. They are still holding on to their castes and the reason, I don't know. Is it the prestige of some sort?
And as you said, displacement has indeed reduced the impact. Getting to know people as human beings is the first step towards development. Whenever I talk negatively about the caste system, there are people who give me weird looks and few who agree with me. Education will reform our society, but the change should start from the families itself. That is where even kids are being fed this nonsense.
The real venomous people are the one who shows themselves as against the caste system and inside following all the things . Sleeper cells .. this is the formate that cast is entering our generation.
