Casteless Society

"Caste has thus become a major obstacle in the establishment of a casteless society."

Indian Government And Politics
A.T. Philip, K.H. Shivaji Rao
Sterling Publishers Private Limited
1987
p. 323

This is a quote that Hannah has come across in one of her textbooks while studying for her exams. For all of you who are fuzzy on the whole caste system thing and how it functions in today's Indian society, please refer to the above statement. Trust me, this will clear up much of your confusion. Maybe I'm reading it in the wrong context and it is simply a little haiku poem. How about: "the [sun] has thus become a major obstacle in the establishment of a [sun]less [galaxy]."
