The correct answer is “B". The caste system of India is an example of social grouping based on rank.
Explanation:
The caste system of India divides society into groups and establishes hierarchies among them. The caste system governs the interaction between the members of the society. It is a very complex system that had its origins in religious thought but received great influences from the ways in which society developed during the colonial time. The economic dimension was decisive. The social class in which a person is born determines their status and role in society. The caste system is based on Hinduism and establishes four main classes originating in Indian Vedic society:
Religious or teachers (Brahmins)
: They knew the secret rituals for the worship of the gods, they were considered the closest human beings to the gods. They were respected and enjoyed many privileges.
Rulers or warriors (Kshatriyas)
: They were in charge of the administration of society and the State
Craftsmen or merchants (Vaishyas)
: They lived in the countryside, directed their slaves to work the land and/or also kept cows.
Workers or servants (Shudras)
: These people were not paid a salary, but were given food and shelter in exchange for work.
Those who cannot be classified in any category have been called "untouchables" (Dalit).
