Social inequality is a universal feature in social structure.
The fact that inequality varies considerably in form, function and scope from one society to another, indicates that these features are not uniform. In Indian society the inequality is manifested in terms of caste system. Inspite of some changes in the apparent feature of the caste system, its basic ingredients are intact. This book analyses how social inequalities arise, how they are sustained and how they change over time. The book beginning with the Varra Vyavastha, briefly traces the history of discrimination and various efforts made by the constitution framers, central and state governments to provide reservation to SCs, STs and OBCs.
