Serves as a device for division of labour:
Caste System has altered as a unique system of division of labor in Hindu Society. It has made provision for all functions ranging from education to scavenging. The provision is made under a religious dogma namely the belief in Karma which makes the apparently inequitable division of labour acceptable to people. The present position and occupation of a person in the society are the consequences of his actions in his previous lives and that if he performs his caste duties faithfully in this present life, he will have a better position in his next life
