(A) Sanskritisation → (II) Dalit groups adopting the practice of dowry. Sanskritisation is the process where lower castes adopt customs, rituals, and practices of upper castes (such as dowry, vegetarianism, or wearing certain attire) to elevate their social status.
-
(B) Westernisation → (I) Dalit groups adopting the use of fork and spoons. Westernisation refers to the adoption of Western lifestyle, habits, and cultural traits (such as cutlery usage, dressing styles, or communication patterns).
-
(C) Modernisation → (III) Public advertisements for jobs stating qualification only. Modernisation means adopting progressive, rational, and scientific approaches, such as merit-based recruitment rather than caste or community-based hiring.
-
(D) Secularisation → (IV) Public holidays for festivals of all religions. Secularisation refers to reducing the influence of religion in public life and promoting equal respect for all religions, such as granting holidays for festivals of all communities.
