Description

If you ask someone in West Bengal whether caste matters in Bengal, the response will depend on their caste. Many Bengali Hindu bhadralok want to believe that caste is irrelevant to Bengali politics and society. Class above caste idioms have been ingrained in the state for a long time thanks to the Left's supremacy, and the idea of Bengali distinctiveness has also benefited. Many upper-caste Bengalis think that what sets them apart from other Indians is their "castelessness." Contrarily, it has been asserted that Bengal is the most casteist society in India because everything there is under the control of the upper castes. The experiences of the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Groups support the notion that Bengal is a caste-ridden and casteist society.
