I'm Bangladeshi, rather than Indian, so I'm watching this from the sidelines. That being said, I'm of the opinion that activists suck up all the oxygen when it comes to discussions of race in the U.S. A Pew poll a few years ago noted that 90% of Indian Americans think discrimination against Indian Americans in America is a "minor problem" or "no problem at all": https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2013/09/16/miss-americ.... But the 10% that think it's a big problem get the biggest platforms.
In reality, it's probably impossible to understand how big or small a problem caste discrimination really is in context. The folks who don't face any negative experiences mostly aren't going to pipe up.
