Answer:

We need to solidify the dimension along which inequality is being looked at. Untouchability is a social convention at the group level, meaning that it is social inequality. So because it is social inequality, it can't eliminate social inequality. Untouchability, in its literal sense, is the practice of ostracising a minority group by segregating them from the mainstream by social custom or legal mandate.

The term is most commonly associated with treatment of the Dalit communities in the Indian subcontinent who were considered "polluting". The term has also been used to refer to other groups, including the Burakumin of Japan, the Baekjeong of Korea, and the Ragyabpa of Tibet, as well as the Romani people and Cagot in Europe
