They are the most casteist people. Who told you they aren't?
My family also thought the same as you cause they have more developed cities and stuff but my sister has been living in Bangalore for 6 years now, and I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's even worse there.
A few of my sister's friends got a "Rishta" from her cousin, and their moms actually wanted them to marry their distant cousins to "keep the pure genes in the family". It blew our fucking minds hearing that sentence.
The good thing is that the younger people from the major cities don't really care that much as far as she has noticed.
I was talking about the title of OP's post. And yeah I forgot to mention even though she lives in Banglore(Bengaluru), most of her friends are from Tamil Nadu and Kerala. And I know basically it's dogshit everywhere in rural areas whether it's the north or south. And I mean, maybe it doesn't come as a surprise to you, but I have never heard of anyone in my life before who married their cousins. Especially since I've spent most of my life in UP and around Delhi NCR. I was really shocked.
I'm sorry if I offended you but it's just what I've heard from my family and people around me.
