Ridding casteism from mutts - From an RSS friend
------

In south karnataka, the RSS started cultivating some mutts a few decades ago

the mutt chief, a brahmin, had the tradition of dining only with fellow brahmins

The RSS cultivated this mutt and as part of this, the local RSS chief had dinners with the mutt head once a week

Initially the local RSS chief was a brahmin and there was no problem
The next local RSS chief was also a brahmin and again no problem
Meanwhile through persuasion, the mutt head was slowly brought around to the need for hindu unity and eradication of casteism

The third local RSS chief was of fisherman caste but by this time the mutt chief had mellowed down on casteism and continued to interdine with the local RSS fisherman

The moral of this is that it takes a lot of persuasion to de-castify mutts and it is a slow process
