The Caste system in India is mainly based on the division of labour. It is a hierarchical system which divides the society into four main castes.
The Brahmins or the priests occupy the top most position in the Indian caste system. They conduct prayers, yajnas and offer sacrifices.
The second position in the society is occupied by the Kshatriyas who are the warriors. Their main responsibility is to protect the society and nation.
The third position in the Indian society is occupied by the farmers, merchants and traders.
The shudras or the untouchables occupy the fourth and the lowest position in the caste system. They do all the menial work such as cleaning toilets, sewers etc. This section fo the society has been exploited since the ancient times. They were deprived of education and a good quality life.
