Caste discrimination is a pervasive social issue in India that has been ingrained in the country's history and culture for centuries. Despite constitutional provisions and legal measures to eradicate this practice, it continues to exist in various forms, perpetuating systemic inequality and injustice. Caste is always depicted as a social issue. However, very little work has been done in the area of the legal aspect of caste.
