Again, expat relocation support is something companies do the world over. It was pioneered in Hong Kong and Singapore to assist European professionals.

It's rather silly to poffer caste privilege as an explanation just because the individuals in question happened to be Indian.

This was not in a company, there was no department. They were roommates. Roommates are not relocation support.

You chose to interject when I responded to another poster. And you claimed it was relevant despite the fact that it was an entirely different scenario.

It's simply another example of the same behavioral pattern

You don't even know what the other situation was! You don't even know if the other situation even involved upper caste Indians. But hey, don't let that stop you from asserting it's the same behavioural pattern.
