Indian social reform

Indian social reform refers to the efforts made in India to address and change social issues such as caste discrimination, gender inequality, and illiteracy. Prominent reformers like Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, and Mahatma Gandhi played key roles in advocating for women's rights, the upliftment of marginalized communities, and the promotion of education. These movements aimed to eradicate harmful practices like sati and dowry, and to promote social justice and equality. The reforms have significantly contributed to the shaping of modern Indian society and its values.
