Answer 1

Answer:

Hinduism supported India's caste system.

Explanation:

The caste system refers to the system of dividing people based on their caste. This was done through four main categories, based on their profession and it also determines their standing in the society. The four levels are- Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and the Shudras, listed according to their importance.

In the past, Hinduism supported the caste system. The people were categorized into four levels and based on one's belonging, their importance and status in society were also understood. Though modern-day Hinduism no longer supports this division, there are still many instances of caste-based discrimination still occurring in India.

Thus, the correct answer is the fifth or last option.
