Mohan,
Thanks for posting the link to Rediff. What is "Rediff"? I ran into an article on "intercaste marriages" that was pretty interesting as well. One excerpt (from a woman who married out of her caste 32 years ago, commenting on the question, "But that was then, surely they accept you now"):
""Yes," she agrees, "But it took three decades for his people to accept me! Now we have achieved respectability among his people, among my people. Not that they have become progressive, but because our children have come up successfully in life. Now that they are well placed, we are respected. Recently, one of our relatives commented that the reason for our children's intelligence is they are 'cross-breeds!'"
