California State Senator Aisha Wahab, a Democrat representing Hayward, has introduced a new bill seeking to ban Discrimination on the basis of caste. The proposed law aims to clarify existing state law and specify that discrimination based on caste is illegal. The move comes just week after the Seattle City Council passed a law banning caste discrimination. This is an India Ahead video.
