The poor, illiterate...oppressor

"In sum, an Upper Caste Hindu in either rural or urban India is significantly more likely to be less illiterate, have lower drop-out rates and therefore be better educated, hold better jobs and have much higher consumtion levels than all other social groups. Given that Upper Caste Hindus are a lot less illiterate and far better educated they are least likely to be poor. Equally importantly, the higher the consumption level the more likely the presence of Upper Caste Hindus. Whereas the these differences are true for both Rural and Urban India, they are far more marked in Urban India where Upper Caste Hindus are over-represented. Finally, in Urban India, STs, Scs and OBCs are far more similar than dissimilar in terms of education attainments and consumption levels.
In Rural India, relatively, it is the SCs that are worst off followed by STs, OBCs and with the Upper Caste Hindus at the top. In Urban India however it is the relative position of OBCs which is the worst, followed by SCs, STs and finally the Upper Caste Hindus at the top. Equally importantly, in Urban India, the differences between STs, SCs and OBCs in terms of relative positioning are very similar and they look a lot more like each other and very different from Upper Caste Hindus."
