My sincere request to the authors of this one of kind article, Suhag Shukla & Samir Kalra, Pls go back to India and enjoy the fruits of your Aryan Vedic Brahmin Varna(Caste) system.

Let the USA be free from your trash.

I am hopeful one day USA will make all the caste names illegal. I don't know why ppl have so much ego not to add their Father or Mother's name(As surname). Your parents need more respect than those inhuman Caste names. All humans are equal. Period

None of the major Hindu texts like bhagvad gita mention anything about birth based system - there is a 10000 year track record. More recent text do so, but they are not major by any stretch. It was the British and missionaries who implemented this officially to divide and convert India

Having said this, India was never able to get rid of the caste system British put in place cause we enshrined it in our constitution to help people from “lower” castes. As a result people from lower caste want to be from lower caste to avail all the benefits and they themselves don’t want to get rid of caste system as a result cause they will lose all the benefits .. most Indians do not follow a caste system , by enshrining it in the constitution every India who has forgotten the caste system will ask a question “what caste do I belong to”, thus ensuring we never forget the caste system .. it is that dumb
