Caste and migration hate speech detection is a critical task in the context of increasingly multilingual and diverse online discourse. In this work, we address the problem of identifying hate speech targeting caste and migrant communities across a multilingual social media dataset containing Tamil, Tamil written in English script, and English. We explore and compare different feature representations, including TF-IDF vectors and embeddings from pretrained transformer-based models, to train various machine learning classifiers. Our experiments show that a Soft Voting Classifier that make use of both TF-IDF vectors and MuRIL embeddings performs best, achieving a macro F1 score of 0.802 on the test set. This approach was evaluated as part of the Shared Task on Caste and Migration Hate Speech Detection at LT-EDI@LDK 2025, where it ranked 6th overall.
