Anti-untouchability Movement
The Anti-untouchability Movement aimed to eliminate the caste-based discrimination that marginalized certain groups in India, particularly the Dalits, historically known as "untouchables." This movement sought to promote social equality and human rights, advocating for dignity, access to resources, education, and equal treatment under the law. Key figures, such as Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, played significant roles in raising awareness and demanding reforms. The movement was crucial in shaping modern India's constitutional framework, which prohibits caste discrimination and promotes social justice, yet challenges persist in achieving full equality for all communities.
