Anti-caste Discrimination

Anti-caste discrimination refers to the efforts and policies aimed at eliminating unfair treatment and social hierarchies based on caste, a system that assigns individuals to social groups often associated with specific occupations and status. This discrimination leads to unequal opportunities, social exclusion, and prejudice against lower castes. Anti-caste initiatives seek to promote equality, challenge stereotypes, and ensure that individuals are judged by their abilities and qualities rather than their caste background, fostering a more just and inclusive society.
