@ Anupam Hi, can I ask why you are removing references to backward castes from the article despite this being sourced?
As per Jose Kalapura's paper, he states: "The Bettiah Christians originally belong castes and middle castes or Backward castes, with one or from the Muslim community and the lower castes".
He also states:
...they were perceived as Christian lohars/b (blacksmiths/carpenters/cartmen) and, hence, were conside to the middle castes (presently known as "Backward Castes" public."
