Explanation:

1) In India, due to the dominance in caste system those people that belongs to scheduled caste or Dalit were considered as untouchables.

2) Untouchables were denied of any easy access in the society and were cornered as a minority.

3) Ill-treatment, social and verbal abuse were very common and hence untouchability was eradicated under the article 17 of Indian Constitution.

4) Dr. B.R Ambedkar himself belonged to a lower caste Dalit family and was discriminated throughout his childhood.
