For Centuries, the Hindu jati or caste systems and their occupations have been integrally interconnected. Even the Vedic Social classification  ased on the hierarchically organised four varnas (classes), i.e. Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra, placed th Brahmin, the ritual   technocrat, at the top of the social ladder while the craftspersons, including the goldsmiths, were included under the bottom category of Shudras. Generally a person practiced the hereditary occupation of his caste and sub-caste, i.e. a person born in a particular sub-caste of carpenter became a carpenter, and that of a potter a potter, by the virtue of his birth as well as that of his profession. Though the caste of a person, determined by his birth, could hardly be changed, there was some degree of flexibility in the matter of changing one’s occupation withing
the broader social strata. Today, though hereditary caste and occupation structures and loosening on account of democratic ideals, modern education and the enhanced mobility of professional groups, leading to the precedence of acquired professional skill over the inherited social strata continue to prevail. Innumerable castes of goldsmiths, spread all over India are entangled in the maze of these highly convoluted social structure.
