Casteism

caste is gone past
                                       now is the modern age
                                        wrinkled and torn all
                                        theories of old page 

                                         all are of same God
                                      no one has higher caste
                                     due duties are to perform
                                         if not does not last 

                                     class is important present
                                   minister is more than master
                                      mechanic is not engineer
                                        runner can run faster

                                   education and wisdom main
                                    along wealth there's name
                                       new version continues
                                      high caste rests in fame 


Note:- After reading about casteism i have realized that casteism is a way which differentiated the same people in different social positions for which domination of upper caste people continued over lower caste people to have more preference in the same society even without having human and social qualities. Now a days the importance of casteism is going to be obsolete where social position has occupied the place of importance.

I enjoyed reading your thoughts on this matter and congratulation you on your modern, egalitarian outlook. Division, layering, and segregation of any groups of people simply on the basis of the accident of birth is certainly wrong, and earned/demonstrated merit is the only valid reason for rewarding one individual more than another.
