Teenager beheaded in southern India in caste-based violence

A 13-year-old girl was killed by someone higher ranking in the caste system because she didn't want the man to make advances on her.  There have been attempts to make it so that both levels of the caste system are on an even playing field, but there is a bias opinion on the matter and there is also a law which makes it so that the police should wait to arrest someone in the higher caste if they assault someone in the lower caste.  There should be a reform in the Indian culture about the caste system because just two years ago, there were over 46000 reports of violence in the caste system.
