In early days, caste system was designed with a perspective of better management of society. Each caste had a defined set of duties to perform. It was then neccassary for marrying in the same caste as the couple need not waste time in making adjustments to the environment as both ofthe couple came from the the same kind of culture.
But in today's world, we have gone beyond the scope of duties of our caste. So it's not neccassary to look out for same caste. Even the child being raised in the same caste is raised with some bit of a different culture. Hence they have to make adjustments after marraige, be it the same caste or a different caste. So why not widen our views.
These days caste system is not so relevant. I've seen many couples from different castes living happily together.

I believe not as rampant as before. It may be more prevalent in India though. Where I come from that was in the past - I live in Trinidad and Tobago where there are different races. So its natural to see a blend of persons who get married, regardless of race. Wealthy people here seldom discrimate whom they marry! There are many cases of rich marrying the poor so to speak. A past prime minister married his maid!
