Low-class people, due to their gross ignorance, introduce a system of religion that deviates from the Vedic principles. Following their own mental concoctions, they automatically fall down into the darkest regions of existence.

In this connection, one may see Bhagavad-gītā, Chapter Sixteen, where there is a description of the downfall of the asuras (16.16 and 16.23).

Translation
These lowest of people, faithful to an ignorant tradition concocted by themselves, which will not accept the authority of the Vedas, will fall down to hell.
