This is the educational video about caste system in Nepal and how this system have discriminated the dalit (the lowest caste) in this system.
Brief Historical Background of Caste System in Nepal.
When did the caste system began in Nepal?
The Vishnu Purana, book 2, chapter 37, an ancient book mentioned that the chatur-varna or four class social system was absent among the Kiratas in Kiratdesa in the east and the Yavanas and Kambojas, etc. in the pashchima or west.
The Kiratdesa has been identified to be Nepal and the surrounding Himalayas region. Yavanas are associated with Greek and Kambojas are Iranian, both whom are situated in paschima or west of India.
This clearly shows that Kiratdesa(now Nepal) did not have the chatur-varna or four class social system that resulted in caste discrimination. The chatur-varna entered Nepal with the arrival of Lichchhavi from northern India in around 330 AD, who defeated the Kirat rule.
Some Facts:
This caste system did not exist in Nepal when Kirat was rulers. The invaders Lichchhavi brought it. The indigenous Nepalese do not follow caste system. This caste system is prevalent among the Hindu Brahmin, Chettri and Thakuri communities.
