Brahmins are a tiny minority. India has one person one vote. Thus brahmins have lost all their political power. India is under majority rule now. The majority are the non-Brahmins. The majority non-Brahmins are using political power to help themselves using RESERVATIONS and AFFIRMATIVE ACTION programs. The Brahmins are being systematically marginalized by the non-Brahmins.
Economically? Not all Brahmins are rich. Some Brahmins work as janitors, toilet cleaners, night soil cleaners, kitchen help, etc. Not all sudras and dalits are poor. Many Sudras and Dalits have gone to college and university with assistance from the government. Many Brahmins complain that reservations and affirmative action programs from the govt. favor Dalits and systematically marginalize Brahmins.
In urban India it is impossible to know the caste of everybody because it is too crowded. People in urban India are less caste conscious, again except for marriage. As the older generation die and are replaced by the younger generation, caste to caste relations will and has improved.
Marriage? People in India prefer to marry within their own caste: that is, intra-caste marriage. It is their right. Mind your own business and keep your comments to yourself as regards to intra-caste marriage.
Untouchable? I am male. The real untouchables in this world are the entire female population of the world. The females insist that only the husband or boyfriend can touch them. It is their right. I too do not like anybody to touch me. It is my right.
