AI-generated Abstract

India's ex-Untouchables, a term associated with the Dalit community, represent a critical area of study regarding social stratification, historical injustices, and the ongoing quest for equality. This paper examines the legacy of caste discrimination and the socio-economic conditions faced by the ex-Untouchables, emphasizing the importance of affirmative action and contemporary movements striving for societal reform. Through a comprehensive analysis, the research aims to shed light on the progress made, the challenges that persist, and the potential directions for future advocacy and policy change.
