Friends, as I live in India and in India, we have people belonging to different cast and community. Most of them are fighting due to upper and lower caste and their communities. That is one of the major problem which makes our country still underdeveloped. It really hurts to see them fighting just because they are from different community. Can't they live together! Can't they think that they are from one country! I just hate this sort of things and don't believe in caste system and communalism and respect each and every religion. But even my grand parents won't understand this. Every time they tell me not to do friendship with that guy as he is from different caste. It makes me feel so much angry. Even politicians of our country, whose duty is to stop such kind of rubbish activities, also indulge in it and promote communalism. I wish the new generation of India will understand this and will at least take some step to stop this major problem.

well, friend. I am also from INDIA. and, yes. I am ashamed at the turn of events. The original system of division into various CASTE system has been based on the vocation and occupation. ONE is classified based on the work culture, in those beginning days. THERE seemed to have wonderful peace and understanding in those days. IT was barter system, and no money was involved. .. but, with the advent of MONEY and the cross-cultural mutations.. resulted in the classification being considered to be foolish. none will be perfect, .. time and distance will have their effects. and, so.. it is up to the authorities to make amends to the old rules. but, alas, the government and the dirty politicians .. make a mockery, by calling one inferior, and some other superior, creating a rift,. for their political vote-bank tricks. alas. YOU too seemed to have gone away from the truth!~
