Remedial Measures

 

1. Proper knowledge about caste: Casteism is the product of conservative and unscientific outlook. People affected by such outlook do not tolerate reason and hence are engaged in practising casteism. If proper frame of education can be provided to them, they may be able to understand the unscientific foundations of the emergence of caste/s and the evil effects of casteism may be checked.
   
2. Encouragement of inter-caste marriages: Restriction on marriages and the practice of endogamy cause social distances between the castes and does not promote the spirit of inclusiveness. In order to overcome that barrier, inter-caste marriages should be promoted. Inter-caste marriages would herald a new beginning by putting an end to the practice of inferiority / superiority because of the closer type of social interaction and inter-mixing among different caste and sub-caste groups.
   
3. Removal of socioeconomic and politico-cultural inequality: Socioeconomic and politico-cultural inequality between different caste groups and sub-caste groups has been the main cause for creating wide social, economic, political and cultural differences. The removal of these differences would lead to the placing of all caste groups and sub-caste groups in the same socio-cultural footing.
