Intercaste marriages
Intercaste marriages are good for the health of Indians. As per the Harward Scientist's claim in his recent book "Who we are and how we got here" , under the chapters about India, he says that certain types of genetic diseases arise because of endogamy- either because people marry close relatives or they have decended from common ancestors. The survey says south Indian states have higher inter caste marriages rate . Around 70 generations ago , Indians stopped inter caste marrying and created endogenous group.
