Untouchability is a direct product of the caste system. ... Untouchability is prompted by the spirit of social aggression and the belief in purity and pollution that characterises casteism. It is generally taken for granted that Dalits are considered polluted people at the lowest end of the caste order



Untouchability is a direct product of the caste system.  It is not merely the inability to touch a human being of a certain caste or sub-caste. It is an attitude on the part of a whole group of people that relates to a deeper psychological process of thought and belief, invisible to the naked eye, translated into various physical acts and behaviours, norms and practices.

Explanation: Untouchability was an inhuman and unjust practice. In the year 1955, it was eventually abolished. It was a common practice among upper-caste individuals to regard lower caste people as dirty and polluted. They kept their distance from them, and lower caste people were denied social equality.

Untouchability is the practice of excluding a group of people deemed "untouchables," resulting in segregation and persecution by people of "higher" castes. The word is most generally connected with the Indian subcontinent's treatment of Dalit communities.

In India, Nepal, and Pakistan, untouchability is prohibited. However, there is no legal definition of "untouchability." B. R. Ambedkar, an Indian social reformer and politician who came from an untouchable social group, claimed that untouchability arose as a result of the upper-caste Brahmins' purposeful policy.
