The four castes do not live with them in one and the same place. These guilds live near the villages and towns of the four castes but just outside them. The people called Hādi, Domba, Chandāla and Badhatau are not reckoned among any class or guild. They are occupied with dirty work, like the cleansing of the villages and other services. They are considered as one sole class distinguished only by their occupations.' (6)
