hiiii mate hope this helps you

Gandhiji was one of those leaders who fought for the rights of untouchables and he ensured that they are not discriminated by the society. It was one of his principle which was given more authority by incorporating Prohibition of untouchability in to our constitution.

Article 17 abolishes untouchability & forbids it's practice in any form. The main objective of Art. 17 is to ban the practice of untouchability in any form. To give article 17 more power, Parliament enacted the THE UNTOUCHABILITY (Offences) ACT, 1955, prescribing punishments for practicing untouchability in various forms. In 1976, the act was renamed as THE PROTECTION OF CIVIL RIGHTS ACT, 1955.

The word ‘untouchability ' has not been defined either in the Constitution or in the act, because it is not capable of any precise definition.
