Social status:
Social status means that a person becomes a member of various groups in the society and achieves his membership.
The fixed place it finds in the social and cultural system of this group.
This is called the social status of the person.
Thus, social status means "the social place of a person in a certain system at a particular time."
Social status shows a person how to behave in relation to other individuals.
Human beings have a certain status in a group, congregation, class or caste.
A person corresponding to this status should play a role.
The expectation that the members of that group have of him.
The role that a person behaves in a situation of social status is his or her role.
Social role is a behavioral aspect of status.
So with every status the functions, rights and duties of human beings are determined.
For example, a person with the status of a doctor diagnoses a patient's disease and provides necessary guidance and treatment.
Then he also plays his role.
Power is associated with every social status.
Increasingly, more or less power is associated with social status.
As the principal of the school has special powers and rights.
In comparison, the school servant has no special powers.
Types of social harassment:
There are two types of social status.
$(1)$ Dedicated status $($gender, caste or religion membership$)$
$(2)$ Achieved status $($Doctor, Teacher, Manager, Sarpanch$)$
$(1)$ Dedicated status:
In society, the status that a person gets from birth is called the status of devotion.
Dedicated status is not based on a person's choice or desires.
For example, status of woman, man, family, caste, religion or country is achieved with birth.
Some group leaders were given the status of 'Mukhi'.
Similarly the appointment of the head of some denomination is also innate. $($Vaishnava sect$)$
$(2)$ Achieved status:
Achieved status is achieved, obtained, achieved or earned through a person's choice, desire, skills, education and training.
Achieved status is achieved through effort, not birth.
The person becomes more dynamic through the process of competition in the attained status.
For example, the Prime Minister of India comes from an economically weaker section of the society.
It is only through his skills, training and efforts that he has been able to achieve this status.
