Simple example if there is one seat left to get admission in big college in India and there 2 candidates first st student with 64% (lower class acc to West) and second General student with 94% but St student with 64% will get admission, selection is happening on the basis of reservation not on merit basis (except Indian army). So tell me who is opressed class answer is General class.

Caste discrimination is very subtle amongst the Indian community which in itself is very fractured on the basis of regionalism already. Congratulations on the win. This is definitely a step ahead.
LOL "No Data" woman argues that caste discrimination should be allowed because there is no data on caste discrimination. If it isn't happening, why would she be against banning it? The only reason to be against a ban on caste discrimination is because she obviously wants to, or does in practice, discriminate based on caste and is worried she won't be able to in the future.
Don't be blind this law could be used against groups for unproven claims as well, for hurt feelings etc. Caste system is form of slavery that Gandhi helped rejuvenate.
It's like saying abolition of slavery is targeting a particular group and will increase discrimination against people who are practicing it. She is worried now that she may go to jail.

At the top of the hierarchy were the Brahmins who were mainly teachers and intellectuals and are believed to have come from Brahma's head. Then came the Kshatriyas, or the warriors and rulers, supposedly from his arms. The third slot went to the Vaishyas, or the traders, who were created from his thighs. At the bottom of the heap were the Shudras, who came from Brahma's feet and did all the menial jobs.Outside of this Hindu caste system were the achhoots - the Dalits or the untouchables.

they partially are. but I think as a whole, social enforcement of castes is still more prevalent than state action against it. and there certainly still are rural areas where the cops support the caste system. like how there are rural areas in india and bangladesh where cops refuse to act against sex crimes and just blame the victims.

The woman interviewed at the end of this report is so condescending towards the anchor, and clearly very dull. She denies something that everyone knows exist- as a non Asian doctor I have seen and heard so many sad stories of how Indian communities discriminate against each other based on caste.

Correct me If I am wrong , those CEOs are there only because of their talent, hard work and they are there because of merit. They just escaped from India because of Govt sponsored positive discrimination.
As I understand it, this is a woman from the highest caste and wants to have privileges and discriminate against the lower castes, so she is against this law.
Cast discrimination still exists and practiced in India. You can go anywhere in India you will find it. Wherever you go in India, you will find people who are more interested to know about your caste and then their behaviour towards you automatically changes. This discrimination training starts from home at very early stage of life by elders. This discrimination is like a cancer to the society.
This shyt should have never been a thing in the first place. When u come to someone else’s country you follow their laws and regulations. Not your former country laws. It doesn’t apply here. We follow the constitution. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great move by Seattle 👍 In fact, as caste is the backbone of the Hindu arranged marriage system, it should also be recognised as a form of institutionalised eugenics (genetic discrimination) that prevents natural genetic mixing of humans within India, and wherever the Hindu diaspora has carried on with this practice. Intercaste marriages are discouraged by Hindu families even in 'modern' India, and intercaste couples often face social ostracism in rural India. In extreme cases intercaste couples are killed by their own family members for bringing the shame of individualisic thinking upon their conservative collectivist-oriented traditional families. Those who oppose intercaste marriage in principle clearly do not accept individual choice in finding one's life partner. Hopefully the younger generations of Indians will eventually be able to think independently about this discriminatory system. Thank you DW.

Very well done, DW. India's caste system is the most iniquitous social construct ever created anywhere in the world. In India, in the name of "merit", the caste oligarchy is completely embedded in corporations, media. entertainment, military, bureaucracy, politics, business as well. High time it was acknowledged, countered, and annihilated whether the Indian privileged-caste diaspora the world over wants it or not.
Modi is obc. His caste was included in obc in 1990. PM modi was already popular due to Ekta yatra. He never faced real discrimination like untouchability that sc st face. President murmu is ST and doesn't come under caste hierarchy.
The wackiest part is that the law prevents them from discriminating against those of low caste. If she feels she is targeted, then she must be planning to discriminate lol. It’s no different than a white person saying a law against discrimination against non-whites is targeting whites.

Great move. This will bring more awareness in the West. Indians in the West are a successful bunch. They have done very well and they are a peaceful community but inside the community there are these divisions which are not apparent to the bigger society as a whole and hence such discrimination keep happening. Awareness is the first step to mitigate and overturn ills of a society. Hopefully Hindu expats keep their peace, tolerant nature not just while dealing with other communities in the West but also among themselves.

@kreight_ I just can't belive there is that much discrimination based on caste even possible. Its one thing in india but as a college graduate, it's not like there all hiring managers are upper caste in US. Confusing.
Sudha Jagannathan is taking all her plays from the old "Jim Crow" book. This lady calls it "my culture" and Jim Crow Segregationist called it "my heritage". 8:52 "it is targeting Hindu Americans"? By Hindu she of course means her "race". No American of non-Indian origin can ever be a TRUE Hindu unless they can be sorted and binned according to Caste. Using the term Hindu American vs Indian American is a clever coded message directed to "lower Caste" Indian Americans that the Old Rules still apply. Some truly terrible people once said something that has become my American Motto of Freedom: "when I hear the word culture I reach for my gun!"
She is fighting for her “right” to discriminate against other people. I can confirm as a Somali woman, extreme clan based discrimination exists in my country and continues to be practiced in America by Somalis. Obviously, despite the similarities faced by the clans who face complete ostracism in Somalia and Indian Hindu based system comes from different roots, it impacts people the same way.
She cant accept that it is targeting practice and not community because she knows it primarily exists within Hindu community. Shame on her for opposing this and talking in public media.
In all fairness caste system is banned in the U.S. - it's simply an issue that hasn't had to come before the supreme court before to be clarified. It's utterly illegal to discriminate, it's simply that no one has made an issue of it in the courts so far. That said it certainly can't hurt to have the law on the books as it could encourage injured parties to come forward and sue to set a precedent.
@thezoldics7648What the heck are you talking about? The Caste system was created in India by Brahmans 2000 years ago. A Brahman had created Manusmriti that included all the discrimination. British had only inherited everything that had been setup by so called "high caste" Indians. Of course Britishers had to put up with whatever was already established and adapt accordingly.
unfortunately, the Indian society is intrinsically feudal and violent in character, infested with supremacist attitudes and beliefs peddled to naive younger generations in the name of cultural heritage and useless ritualistic traditions
The law often goes unenforced and caste is still a very real thing in India. The law is an effort to combat it, but without proper enforcement true change can't come.

I fully expect Indians to take this in stride as a valid criticism of the class structures that are still very much entrenched in our society. What I don't expect us to do is deflect this as a Western attack on Hinduism and India as a whole.
This is a western attack. Rajiv Malhotra had warned of this insidious agenda few months back and not surprisingly it is now coming out in the open. Read about the Afro-Dalit project.
She's exactly someone I imagine who will discriminate against her own people. Even her reasoning is twisted. Unashamedly arguing against a bill that will give equal treatment to whole commmunities of Indian expatriates, it's apparent she's not ready to give up her exalted status just yet.
People quoting Dr B R Ambedkar should also quote what he said of islam and christianity. And western countries should work on their racial, ethnic and gender discrimination problem first before trying to lecture others.
Don't let natzi hindus tell you caste discrimination doesn't exit. Recently 4 rape accued and rapist released by court who raped and murdered a dalit girl. Although girl gave dying statement of rape and brutality but accused were saved by court whole system controll by them.
Mrs Jagannathan, what are the possible harms of banning caste-discrimination towards Hindus Americans? If there is truly no evidence of caste discrimination in America like she claimed, then she has nothing to gain from protesting against it. Yet she label an anti-discrimination law as racist, she is fighting to protect the higher caste where she was born into.
Caste discrimination in India is everywhere. It is omnipresent and the so called upper castes are the main culprits. Despite them being educated, they have not been able to come out from their caste mentality and that is disheartening. Am happy to see that America has taken a step and has done the right thing for others to follow.
This is a win for all the commoners of India, whose story has always remained untold, who make the 'Bharat' with their sweat and blood so that the feudalistic creatures can boast about 'India' abroad! They are getting justice slowly but surely. This is a millennium fight, this is 'the' good fight!

First of all that lady "Sudha Jaganathan" by her name itself, I can make out that she is from the upper caste. She says that caste is a non-issue in the US and that she has never experienced or seen caste discrimination in India. If it is a non-issue then why oppose the regulation?? Just because she has not experienced it (considering that she is from the upper caste the chances of her experiencing it is nil) does not mean there are others who haven't experienced it.
It's pretty apparent in hiring for tech jobs too. I have noticed that a lot in my almost two decades of stay in the US. That lady was all full of "me, myself and I". If she did not experience casteism in India and the USA, it does not mean others do not experience it at all.
I am talking from complete ignorance here, but how do they even tell which caste are people from in order to discriminate them? Is it their last names?

Don't be blind this law could be used against groups for unproven claims as well, for hurt feelings etc. Caste system is form of slavery that Gandhi helped rejuvenate.
It's like saying abolition of slavery is targeting a particular group and will increase discrimination against people who are practicing it. She is worried now that she may go to jail.

Must reject/derecignize that Govt?
At the top of the hierarchy were the Brahmins who were mainly teachers and intellectuals and are believed to have come from Brahma's head. Then came the Kshatriyas, or the warriors and rulers, supposedly from his arms. The third slot went to the Vaishyas, or the traders, who were created from his thighs. At the bottom of the heap were the Shudras, who came from Brahma's feet and did all the menial jobs.Outside of this Hindu caste system were the achhoots - the Dalits or the untouchables.

Caste is the base of Hinduism.That's why Dr BR Ambedkar left Hinduism
I ❤Hinduism, it's way more than caste ,cows
Because Ambedkar face caste discrimination and that's why he left Hinduism
it sure is. but at its core it is basically a social segregation system. You like it because you belong to an upper caste. It is useless to anyone who is from Shudra or Dalit community which form 70% of India's population @@aayushdalal3771

Cast discrimination still exists and practiced in India. You can go anywhere in India you will find it. Wherever you go in India, you will find people who are more interested to know about your caste and then their behaviour towards you automatically changes. This discrimination training starts from home at very early stage of life by elders. This discrimination is like a cancer to the society.
This shyt should have never been a thing in the first place. When u come to someone else’s country you follow their laws and regulations. Not your former country laws. It doesn’t apply here. We follow the constitution. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@THE ZOLDICS No, Hindus have a caste system. Now they can't discriminate using it in Seattle. Cope.
Okay, we will rename it racial discrimination to comply with US constitution
Great move by Seattle 👍 In fact, as caste is the backbone of the Hindu arranged marriage system, it should also be recognised as a form of institutionalised eugenics (genetic discrimination) that prevents natural genetic mixing of humans within India, and wherever the Hindu diaspora has carried on with this practice. Intercaste marriages are discouraged by Hindu families even in 'modern' India, and intercaste couples often face social ostracism in rural India. In extreme cases intercaste couples are killed by their own family members for bringing the shame of individualisic thinking upon their conservative collectivist-oriented traditional families.
Those who oppose intercaste marriage in principle clearly do not accept individual choice in finding one's life partner.
Hopefully the younger generations of Indians will eventually be able to think independently about this discriminatory system.

In all fairness caste system is banned in the U.S. - it's simply an issue that hasn't had to come before the supreme court before to be clarified. It's utterly illegal to discriminate, it's simply that no one has made an issue of it in the courts so far.

Despite them being educated, they have not been able to come out from their caste mentality and that is disheartening. Am happy to see that America has taken a step and has done the right thing for others to follow.
If you want to dismantle caste based discrimination, start with changing your surname
Under what rock she lives...she has not seen caste discrimination in India and America she is lying
This is a win for all the commoners of India, whose story has always remained untold, who make the 'Bharat' with their sweat and blood so that the feudalistic creatures can boast about 'India' abroad! They are getting justice slowly but surely. This is a millennium fight, this is 'the' good fight!
@THE ZOLDICS “understandableness” does not make something correct.
People who lives in west, how tf they experiencing caste differences, i dont get thhat
its nothing but their hate against hindus living abroad
Those opposing law are radical supporters of caste system. It is very unfortunate that they feel this way. Even if there were no reports then also making a law to ensure equal rights is a great idea
Why not?? Reservati0n is one of the reason they are living outside India. Distant from their relatives, Village peoples, their friends and from their culture.
@@sairis if people could leave India they will. Doesn't matter who they are. Bcz how much you think it's not true, it is, that lifestyle in foreign is better. "Biggest accomplishment in india is leaving it"
@@sairisso u r supporting Casteism because of reservation?? Wow cope u MFS more power to usa...bring anti caste law . please
5:52 They only group that this law negatively impacts is Indians at the top of the caste system who benefit from discriminating against Indians at the bottom of the caste system.
All of the Indians at the bottom of the caste system are rejoicing, so I can't agree with her.
Caste and light skin color are a virulent obsession in India. It's terrible and tragic
3:06; the minority community who is opposing this legislation is controlling majority wealth n power back in india through caste discrimination…so why wld they support this bill which makes them feel impotent without caste n discrimination
She didn't face any discrimination because she is from the higher caste.
She said Bahujan.Dont think its a high caste
British bought Caste from Europe into India in 1860s to divide Hindus.
India banned Caste in 1950s...
Seattle re-created Caste in 2023...
First of all that lady "Sudha Jaganathan" by her name itself, I can make out that she is from the upper caste. She says that caste is a non-issue in the US and that she has never experienced or seen caste discrimination in India. If it is a non-issue then why oppose the regulation?? Just because she has not experienced it (considering that she is from the upper caste the chances of her experiencing it is nil) does not mean there are others who haven't experienced it.
“Culture and Tradition”
Is that really the terms you want to go with, when addressing Caste?
Caste discrimination in India is alive and Dalits are the sufferers.
It's pretty apparent in hiring for tech jobs too. I have noticed that a lot in my almost two decades of stay in the US.
That lady was all full of "me, myself and I". If she did not experience casteism in India and the USA, it does not mean others do not experience it at all.
I am talking from complete ignorance here, but how do they even tell which caste are people from in order to discriminate them? Is it their last names?
Actually there is complete mixing here ....
And Here They have Actually played with caste ....
There are Two Solid Categories
Brahims General and SCs and ST's
Now
There is a 3rd Category of OBC's
My Surname is OBC in India's Uttar Pradesh
But
General in Another state Uttarakhand
The People who may share common surname may belong to completely different Caste group .....
But surely couple of surnames can definitely help you to identify a particular caste
Paswan - Dalits
Sharma - Brahmin
Mr. Sanchez caste divisions were made on the basis of what people did for their living. For
example Farmers, Priests, Shepherds, Gold smiths, Cattle herds, Tailors, Clothes washers etc.
Lack of inter caste mobility is a problem with the caste system.
There shouldn’t be a cast system for there to be a mobility.
It was meant to be dependent on Karma I.e work and not birth ....
For the same reason Hindu scriptures like Ramayan was Written by Valmiki
And Valmiki is a Dalit caste now......
Some people used it for their own benefits ...
@@_kartik_chauhan Buddhism was popular in China, but there was never any castes formed. Chinese fate changes and life churns depending on each person's goal and struggle. Life changes in each generation.
They don't want it because most upper caste people are closeted casteists
- After arguing against something Sudha Jagannathan regards as purely based on anecdote, not on data, she then makes an argument based on her personal experiences. That’s a data point of one person’s experience or - an anecdote.
I was also going to state what Andy Green (in these comments) has already stated very nicely earlier.
