The caste system has undergone many changes, many people have predicted its soon demise, but it has proven to stay. Many theories such as Sanskritization by M.N. Srinivas have been written about the caste system and many studies showed that caste has retreated, though not disappeared, from several spheres of life. A delinking of occupation and caste, increased inter-caste and interreligious marriages and the status of a person is increasingly measured not by traditional hereditary factors such as caste but individual parameters such as wealth, job security and career chances, that are factors which can individually be acquired. Thus, researchers said that class will supplant caste, but recent research has shown that it would be better not to see these two as opposed to each other and rather study the similarities. We have researched in rural and urban areas with in purposefully selected areas in Goa with people from many different social backgrounds, religions, caste, and as well tribal background. We have opted to use mainly qualitative research. The open-ended informal interview or semi-structured interview with an interview guide was mostly used as it provides best insight in how people perceive their life and changes. Due to social changes such as democratization after Liberation from the Portuguese colonial rule in 1961, the Land Tiller’s Act which transferred the land from the owners to the tillers and migration, which offered especially to the former working class higher incomes, caste markers have undergone changes as well. A significant change to individual choices from inherited traditional caste rules could be observed, which depended on individually acquired characteristics. Hereditary traditional factors such as caste, which are non-personal, retreated to the background. As caste is seen by many as discrimination, people try to get rid of it or hide it as much as possible. That means that obvious caste markers such as names of wards indicating one’s profession or caste background cannot be used anymore, as the composition of castes in wards have changed as well. Profession and caste have been decoupled, the sitting order in the church does not indicate caste anymore and other traditional caste markers have become obsolete. Thus, people have found out new markers to orient themselves in their social world. These factors were for instance language. The accent of course could be changed, as certain accents were related to specific varnas and as well jaatis. As ward names have changed, the setting and look of wards became important, such as the space in front of the house and the absence or presence of agricultural tools or harvest versus flower beds and expensive children’s toys were gauged. The style of the house, how many stories and the style of color and decoration were considered as well. The behavior and demeanor became very important as well as the style of clothes and jewelry one was wearing. As well how feasts and parties were celebrated. These individual factors of gauging the status of a person did have significant influences and repercussions on social set up in urban and very strong as well in rural areas. The member composition or formal and informal meetings and local NGOs are due to personal interest and skills. Thus, hot issues in villages are decided by expected personal gain and interest. Professions get a new ranking according to career chances and income, dining with others depends on personal liking. Despite this emerging class character, we should not see class and caste dichotomous, as people use either of them in different situations depending on what they feel might get them better chances to advance to their goals. Seeing caste and class as complimentary and not dichotomous helps

Purpose: Electronic Tourism is one of the important components of expanding Tourism by synchronizing this industry with information technology. It has not been long since its emergence. Methodology: this field is a combination of tourism and information technology that is one of the most common types of income-generating businesses which is producing job opportunities in the modern world. The advancement of science alongside communication and information technologies presented many opportunities and threats to this field due to tech such as smartphones and sensors, virtual and augmented reality tools, NFC, RFID, etc. Findings: The disclosure of the tourists' information and the possible abuse of it is one such threat. Therefore privacy and non-disclosure of information should be important factors. Recognition of reputable sites is an important factor in solving this problem. In this study, we have presented a model for recognizing fake and phishing sites which use the CFS+PSO and a combination of Info+Ranger alongside their results to reduce the test dataset features so that it could present a model for categorizing and higher accuracy in recognizing phishing sites by using the Multilayer Perceptron method. The proposed model was successful in recognizing 95.5% of phishing sites. Counclusion: The effect of information technology on the tourism industry and the usage of internet websites for selling and providing tourism services to tourists have created new security challenges. Protecting the privacy and personal information of people and tourists is one of these challenges and the disclosure of such information could lead to abuse by unqualified people and dissatisfaction and distrust of such systems.
