Step-by-step explanation
There are four major groups of Hindus called varnas, each of which has a specific role in society: Brahmans (priests) at the top, followed by Kshatriyas (warriors & Rulers) and Vaishyas (initially farmers but later traders), and finally Shudras (lower-caste peasants & artisans and laborers). There are several other types of "pollutants," such as blood, menstrual blood, saliva, manure, leather, filth, and hair, that are used to decide which varna a jati should be placed in. Restrictions on intercaste relations were put in place to protect the purity of a specific jati against lower caste defilement.
