Abstract: | The essay submitted b y the Hindu Council of the United Kingdom on "Caste in India" contains no surprises. It seeks to justify and legitimise th e continuation of the caste system. It argues that in its origin the caste system was away of maintaining a harmonious and integrated society, that it was not by birth but by "merit", and that today it functions as something like a " club" in which likeminded people can associate freely with one another. |
