उत्तर
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
Explanation:
Endogamy is a common practice among caste groups. In this, relationships between members of the same caste are usually restricted. It is a result of the rigid caste-based restrictions that govern interpersonal relationships and marriage customs. In many cases, getting married outside of one's caste can lead to violence or social exclusion.
