Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So the Answer is as per law. According to the Supreme Court, a person’s caste can not be changed and it can not be changed even after marriage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hindus believe when a person dies, he or she is reincarnated as another being, hopefully in a higher caste. The only way to move to a higher caste in the next life is to strictly obey the rules of one’s current caste.
Detailed explanation-3: -There was one more reason to marry in the same community I.e. the soul can continue it’s journey to nivarna. It was easy if the soul gets rebirth in same community as it will be easy to start from where it left rather than learning new things in a new caste/ gotra/ community.
