'Caste decided by birth, can't change with marriage'

"There cannot be any dispute that the caste is determined by birth and the caste cannot be changed by marriage with a person of Scheduled Caste," the SC said. A woman is not entitled to the benefits of reservation if she was born in an upper caste family, and her caste remained so despite marrying into a Scheduled Caste family, the court clarified.
