How would you enforce this? In the US this is completely illegal.

In addition, you would have to ask extremely invasive questions of everyone. So is your proposal that you require that your company ask for the detailed ethnicity of everyone? What happens when people refuse, do you just not allow them to interview or manage?

What about people who were born in the US, do you assume that if they are of Japanese descent they can't interview someone of Chinese descent?

In India the surname might indicate caste. Then easy to tell in States.
True, but in diffrent indian states people from diffrent caste can have the same surname.
How would you know which is which if you are not Indian?
