A sad indictment of the injustices created by the caste system.

“And unless we tackle economic exclusion at its root, every new policy will only be a bandage.”

How does one simply create jobs for the bottom castes without revolutionary change, activism and policies from the top? Power, political change and need for education have to start from the top before the poor and lowl can be lifted from the quagmire and jobs created for them. No point finding them a PAID job cleaning the Brahmins’ toilets while the weight of tradition and persecution still rests upon their shouders.
