Should India change its caste-based quota system? - Inside Story

Thousands of soldiers have been deployed to Haryana state in northern India where protesters have been killed in riots. Jats - a traditionally rural community of farmers - are demanding more government jobs and places in state-run universities. They complain of discrimination because of India's caste system, not because they're from a lower caste but from a higher one. The Jat say they are being shut out because of a quota system that gives more opportunities to Indians from lower castes. Why are they demanding more opportunities? And what are the roots of the caste system?
