"Upper Castes" refers to the social groups in the traditional Indian caste system that are generally considered to have higher social status and privilege. These groups often include the Brahmins, Kshatriyas, and Vaishyas, who historically held roles in religious, military, and commercial activities, respectively. They typically have greater access to education, resources, and political power compared to lower castes. The caste system has been a significant aspect of Indian society for centuries, influencing social dynamics and relationships. While the Indian Constitution abolished caste-based discrimination, the legacy of the caste system still affects social interactions and opportunities in contemporary India, leading to ongoing discussions about equality and social justice.
