What is Caste and Varna System about?

The riddle of origins of the Indian caste system and its true nature remained unsolved because erroneously the scholars tried to find its source in Vedic system. The theories so far proposed mostly are descriptive in nature without touching the socio-economic aspects in genesis and development of the castes. They failed to understand that the Caste and Varna systems are independent concepts belonging to the distinct religions thus created a great confusion. Hindu and Vedic religions are independent bodies those have very little or nothing in common. The Author explains diligently what circumstances forced changing an occupation-oriented flexible system into a rigid, compartmentalized unjust caste system during the medieval era. Mr. Sonawani in this book throws a glaring light on the historical facts of the castes extensively using the social, religious and political history of India. This book will provide a new insight on the enigmatic caste system!
