Detailed Solution

Jatis varied socially and economically, and their position in the social hierarchy dictated them.
A socially and economically varied society, in which caste or jati played a significant role, emerged throughout the medieval era. A social hierarchy was constructed by jati or caste. The caste a person belonged to dictated their position in the social hierarchy. Jati panchayats were established using jatis as the foundation. Jati panchayats were in charge of policing its members' behavior by following established guidelines. Jati created a social structure. Based on their antecedents and professions, jatis or sub-castes are ranked. Ranks were not set in stone and changed based on the riches, influence, and power that individual jati members controlled. Depending on the location, the status of the same jati may change.
