Summary, etc | Untouchability is a sin and bolt on Indian Society. Gandhi from early childhood relentlessly worked to remove untouchability. He was doing something completely original for the removal of untouchability without creating any disharmony in the individual and society. He looked at and understood untouchability from an angle no one was able to. His vision and method was direct, and this directness was, and is, revolutionary. Gandhi was the first pioneering leader who made the removal of untouchability a life mission. Gandhi made untouchability a national issue. His fight was unique and unparallel. What is remarkable about Gandhi is that instead of falsely glorifying the past, he in fact infused the past with his very modern ideas of morality, justice, fearlessness, fraternity, absence of hierarchy, and dignity of the individual values which he thought were essential for the revivification of our ancient but also decadent society. Mahatma Gandhi’s statement on Untouchability will be an eye-opener for the general readers and critics to understand his crystal clear view on untouchability. |
