The Indian caste system has changed in this order:

i. Castes are rigid and inflexible; people are born into a caste and cannot leave it.

ii.  A system of social classes based on birth evolved.

iii. Discrimination based on caste is determined to be illegal.

iv. Castes are a prominent part of people's lives, but people may have been able to move around.


Although the caste system in India officially ended in 1950 and the discrimination is illegal, this does not prevent people from being discriminated against by their caste even today. UNICEF estimates that caste discrimination reaches more than 250,000 people worldwide.

Contemporary India can no longer be explained and understood only on the basis of the four main castes (Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, Sudras) and the individuals who have no caste, called the Dalits. In contemporary India, Indians do not necessarily occupy the professions designated by the castes. Some Dalits, for example, have managed to rise economically and are consumers. In addition to the economic rise, another way of escaping from caste oppression, in the case of the Dalits, was to convert to religions that do not have the caste system.

6 Benefits of NAFTA

1. Quadrupled Trade.

2. Lowered Prices.

3. Increased Economic Growth.

4. Created Jobs.

5. Increased Foreign Direct Investment.

6. Reduced Government Spending.

USMCA.

Quadrupled Trade

Between 1993 and 2019, trade between the three members quadrupled from $290 billion to $1.23 trillion.5 6 That boosted economic growth, profits, and jobs for all three countries.7 It also lowered prices for consumers.

. Lowered Prices

Lower tariffs also reduced import prices. That lessened the risk of inflation and allowed the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates low.

Increased Economic Growth

NAFTA boosted U.S. economic growth by as much as 0.5% a year.18 The sectors that benefited the most were agriculture, automobiles, and services.

Created Jobs

Some sources say that NAFTA exports created 5 million net new U.S. jobs.27 Most of those jobs went to 17 states, but all states saw some increases. U.S. manufacturers added more than 800,000 jobs between 1993 and 1997. Manufacturers exported $487 billion in 2014. It generated $40,000 in export revenue for each factory worker.

Increased Foreign Direct Investment

Since NAFTA was enacted, U.S. foreign direct investment (FDI) in Canada and Mexico has more than tripled to $500.9 billion. In 2017, U.S. investors poured $391.2 billion into Canada and $109.7 billion into Mexico.2524 That boosted profits for U.S. businesses by giving them more opportunities to develop and markets to explore.

Reduced Government Spending

NAFTA allowed firms in member countries to bid on all government contracts.29 That created a level-playing field for all companies within the agreement's borders. It cut government budget deficits by allowing more competition and lower-cost bids.

USMCA

Despite these advantages, the United States, Mexico, and Canada renegotiated NAFTA on Nov. 30, 2018.30 The new deal is called the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. (USMCA) Mexico ratified the agreement in 2019. The agreement was signed by Donald Trump on Jan. 29, 2020. Canada's Parliament ratified it on Mar. 13, 2020.
