As we all understand, there are several cases of group conflict, but we all recognize how to battle the divisive powers that oppose our nation's peace and dignity. All groups work and collaborate together here and relate to the Economic growth of India. And if we're going to talk over which category is prosperous or which society is richest, let me tell you that a caste's wealth doesn't base on the list of Forbes. So precisely which group or culture is rich or poor cannot be said. A given group's wealth can only be measured if we consider the overall per capita earning. Here, as per income (average) and standard of living, we evaluate the Top 10 Affluent Communities in India.
