Mahatma Gandhiji played a memorable role in uplifting the untouchables. Gandhiji popularised the word “Harijan”‘ meaning “the people of God” — a word which was first coined and used by a Guajarati Brahmin saint by name Narasinha Mehta.

According to Gandhiji, the practice of untouch­ability is “a leper wound in the whole-body of Hindu politic”. He even regarded it as “the hate fullest expression of caste”. He made it his life’s mission to wipe out untouchability and to uplift the de­pressed and the downtrodden people. As a servant of mankind, he preached that all human beings are equal and hence the Harijans too have a right for social life along with other caste groups.
