YES ITS COMMON IN NEPAL AND INDIA THE CASTE SYSTEM , BECAUSE OF THE CULTURE AND RELIGION , IT WILL NEVER GO AWAY ,, BUT I DON'T THINK I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THAT NEPALESE PEOPLE ARE WAY MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN INDIANS THAT,, IN NEPAL THE YOUNG GENERATIONS DOESN'T GIVE CRAP ABOUT CASTE AS MUCH AS THE YOUNG GENERATION OF A DECADE AGO DID

IN INDIA LARGE # OF PEOPLE GET KILLED FOR MARRYING/DATING/TRYING TO MARRY IN TO DIFFERENT CAST ,,,,, BUT IN NEPAL I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANYONE BEING KILLED FOR THE SAME REASON

.... JUST MY TWO CENTS THOUGHTS THO...
