PirateSmackK's answer is excellent, and I suggest you award him best answer; however, I would like to add a bit. The first things that stand out, in both versions of the article, is the complete absence of both internal links and references to any source. An internal link is coded this way: [[India]] or [[caste]] and provides a link to other Wikipedia articles. See Wikipedia:Footnotes on how to make references to sources. Use published material as sources for information you wish included in the article. As both contestants in this matter are new to Wikipedia, please be as kind to your "opponent" as possible. He may be "high caste" but obviously has a lot to learn and deserves compassion. Be patient and discuss the article and what sources are useful on the talk page.

I agree with you that the Wiki article reads like an editorial or mean spirited opinion piece rather than factual information. It's up to you to challenge error where you see it. For practically every statement that is made in the article you could ask for a reference. Even the descriptions of these people is unsupported. If it means anything, the article is so poorly written that I don't think anyone would give more than a minutes read then dismiss it as rubbish.
