Our India is a subcontinent which is been divided into different type of castes .

Aryans are the people who created the caste systems which had been existing since the ancient times..

When the colonial period began,Indian society was divided into a number of castes. At the lowest level were the people who worked hard to keep the cities and villages clean. The upper castes considered their touch impure and called them

' UNTOUCHABLES '.

The so -called untouchables had to live in separate. They were not allowed to draw water from public wells and to use public transport .

In 19th and 20th centuries,the caste system underwent many changes as a result of several measures and reforms. There were also social reform movements in many parts of India.
