Hey,
Dr B.R. Ambedkar, who organised the dalits into the Depressed Classes Association in 1930, clashed with Mahatma Gandhi at the second Round Table Conference by demanding separate electorates for dalits.
When the British government conceded Ambedkar’s demand, Gandhiji began a fast unto death.
He believed that separate electorates for dalits would slow down the process of their integration into society.
Ambedkar ultimately accepted Gandhiji’s position and the result was the Poona Pact of September 1932.
It gave the Depressed Classes (later to be known as the Schedule Castes) reserved seats in provincial and central legislative councils, but they were to be voted in by the general electorate.

The issue of clash between Mahatama Gandhi and Dr. B. R. Ambedkar was the latter’s demand for separate electorates for the Dalits as he was a leader of Dalits.
Gandhi however didn’t believe in it and started fasting unto death. This issue was resolved with the signing of the Poona pact in the year 1932.
