Manual scavenging is not only shameful but also a blot on human dignity
Answers
Explanation:
Dignity is the right of a person to be valued and respected for their own sake, and to be treated ethically. It is of significance in morality, ethics, law and politics as an extension of the Enlightenment-era concepts of inherent, inalienable rights.
Manual Scavenging refers to the practice of carrying human excreta in baskets on heads by sweepers. A manual scavenger is the person who does the job of carrying this filth. This practice had been taking place in our society for centuries. But, this practice was really shameful and also an offence against human dignity. That is why, many social reformers and activists of the human rights severely condemned this practice. As a result, the government passed a law against manual scavenging in 1993.
