Why did Mahatma Gandhi want people to give up the practice of untouchability |
|
Answer» Believing that UNTOUCHABILITY is a religious issue, Gandhi sought to ABOLISH the "pernicious custom" of untouchability not the caste system. He also avoided taking up the issues of intermarriage and inter-dining. HINDUS, he believed, OWED it to themselves and to Hinduism to ERADICATE untouchability. |
