Does this caste exist? Perhaps. There is sourcing to show that they are a "backward class". Currently, only one of the sources mentions them (although I cannot read the #5 ref), #1 and #2 are the same ref, and both simply mention the backward class in a list, with zero additional information. Refs #3 and #4 do not even mention the class. Searches did not turn up any in-depth coverage, so fails WP:GNG could be redirected to Gounder, but the redirect was challenged.

 * Delete Fails GNG, no IS RS with SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth exist. Oppose redirect, doesn't seem like a viable search term based on a lack of BEFORE search results.  // Timothy :: talk  03:44, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
