Casteism is a system of social stratification in which an individual's social status and opportunities are determined by their birth, ancestry, ethnicity, or occupation. It is typically based on rigid social divisions, such as those between Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras in Hinduism. In a caste system, movement between social strata is usually restricted or difficult, and individuals often face discrimination and prejudice based on their perceived social station.
