The current situation in India is no different. From outside it is emphasized that caste holds no grounds but when it comes to marriage, many are very much interested in knowing ones caste, land, status etc.
If I could add on a funnier but sadly very true side:
There is another "caste" which is prevalent for a long time now. The NRI caste. If one belongs to the NRI caste then you hold highest status/cast (your family caste, background now just become irrelevant), especially when it comes to marriage proposals.
There still are Singhs who practice/follow the Khalsa teachings of no caste/colour etc. but sadly many do not and the above is a classic example.
By the way, I don't mean any kind of dis-respect to the NRI sangat.
This is the actually ground reality and in fact the NRI sangat must definitely have faced this themselves, many times.
