Dear Puniselva,

First, I apologize for the delay in responding.
I fully agree with you. While Christianity, Buddhism and Islam might have made a marginal positive impact on caste among Hindus, it is sad that they too have adopted caste prejudices and participate in oppression.

But the difficulty is there is no ”organisation” in Hinduism with a Head who is ”followed” by Hindus and who can seak against casteism.

High time a critical mass of ”active” Hindus doing domething.

It’s a pity Buddhism and Christianity have some form of ”infection” from Hindus?

(I was born a Hindu but am now a humanist)
