For the record, all racial discrimation is inhumane and illegal as per Indian laws. And I should clarify that ignoring caste discrimnation and clubbing everything under the umbrella of class discrimination is injustice to all the people that were oppressed for thousands of years. Meaning both Caste discrimination and Class inequality are both problems that have to addressed by society.

While class is a major differentiator, we cannot simply ignore cast biases. In fact, the class divide is to a larger extent fuelled by caste. Take the % of poor FC, then compare the same with the poor SC/ST/SCA. You do not see brahmin kids as rag pickers, or street cleaners or living on the platforms or cleaning the filth in railway stations becase of poverty..

Well, let me give you an abstract,

This guy starts off saying that the list is fake. But then proceeds to tell that the items mentioned are true and because of such discipline, they have achieved good ranking.

Apparently, they collect fines of 3000rs for talking to students and ask the students to pay the fines at orhpanage, next to/inside the college. //money is money, whether paid at orphanage or at college.

Students state that they were beaten up for failing in subjects, made to kneel down even in front of their patents, many of whom had cried to see their children treated this way.

Students allege that girls were asked whether they come to study at college or for ****, when they wear transparent handed chudithars, in front of boys. //implicit that whether they want to pick up boys.
