India has a hierarchical caste system in the society. Within Indian culture, whether in the north or the south, Hindu or Muslim, whether in the north or the south, Hindu or Muslim, urban or rural, virtually all things, people, and groups of people are ranked according to various essential qualities. If one is attuned to the theme of hierarchy in India, one can discern it everywhere. Although India is a political democracy, in daily life there is little advocacy of or adherence to notions of equality. Indian society is a heterogeneous, wherein people belonging to various castes and communities reside. The people of Indian society are divided on the basis of castes. Caste system is based on Varna System where the Brahmins are at the top of the hierarchy, followed by Vysyas, Kshatriyas and Sudras. Those people who are outside the varna system are known as Avarnas or Antajas or Panchamas of Chandalas (Mumtaz Ali Khan, 1980).
