Source: Caste and Politics, Chapter 3

Explanation

The textbook explicitly states: "Unlike gender and religion, caste division is special to India." Gender divisions exist universally, and religious diversity is widespread worldwide, but the caste system — with its ritual-sanctioned hereditary occupational divisions — is unique to India. Examinees must recall this direct line from the chapter.
