उत्तर

Group stereotypes are fixed, oversimplified, and often unfair ideas about an entire group of people. They assume that everyone in the group is the same and share certain traits or behaviors.

For example, believing that “all people of a certain religion are violent,” “all members of a caste are unclean,” or “all teenagers are careless” are group stereotypes. These ideas ignore individual differences and are usually based on limited or wrong information.

Group stereotypes can lead to prejudice and discrimination, creating divisions and conflict in society. They stop people from understanding and respecting others as unique individuals.
