Untouchables had been described as “The oppressed of the oppressed and lowest of the low”, who had been treated as lesser human beings by the society. Usually people, who belonged to lower strata of Hindu community, were also known as Shudras, Outcastes or Panchamas.
Shudras – Existence of Shudras (at present referred as untouchables/Dalits) was recognized, as early as, Pre Mauryan Period (6th century BC to 3rd century BC). Though given a lower status, they were always an integral part of Hindu society. In the Northern and Eastern parts of India, they were very much belonged to fourth Varna “Shudra”, which was divided into two parts pure or non-excluded and excluded or untouchables.Shudras were divided into two categories – touchables and untouchables. thank me later
