Caste discrimination issue
Historical Legacy: Historical injustices and inequalities continue to influence perceptions and behaviours, leading to the perpetuation of discriminatory practices.
Cultural Norms and Traditions: Social practices, rituals, and inter-caste marriage restrictions reinforce caste-based distinctions, making it difficult to break free from these entrenched norms.
Power dynamics: Caste-based discrimination is often tied to power dynamics, with dominant castes seeking to maintain their privileged positions. Lower castes face discrimination and exclusion as a means of preserving existing hierarchies.
Economic Disparities: Lower-caste individuals often face limited access to education, employment opportunities, and resources, leading to a cycle of poverty and marginalization that reinforces discriminatory practices.
Lack of Effective Implementation: While laws and policies have been enacted to address caste-based discrimination, their effective implementation remains a challenge.
Weak enforcement, lack of awareness, and corruption hinder the eradication of discriminatory practices.
Political Considerations: Political parties exploit caste divisions for electoral gains, perpetuating caste-based discrimination for their own interests.
What is Decasting in India?

Education: Educate younger generations about the importance of seeing beyond caste and the value of inclusivity.
Representation beyond reservations: Push for Dalit representation in cultural institutions, intellectual spaces, and media, beyond just reserved seats in politics
Celebrate Dalit History: Embrace and highlight the contributions of Dalits in the Indian independence movement and other spheres.
Promote Allies: Encourage individuals from privileged castes to become allies, supporting marginalized communities in various spaces.
Build Trust: Address and work on the distrust Dalits might feel towards the upper segments of society, fostering unity.
Policies Emphasizing Inclusion: Formulate policies that emphasize diversity, inclusion, and equity, ensuring nobody is left behind
