Untouchables who do work Indians consider unclean?

In India, the term "Untouchables" historically refers to Dalits, a group that has been marginalized and subjected to discrimination within the Caste System. They often perform jobs considered "unclean" or menial, such as manual scavenging, waste disposal, and other labor-intensive roles. This social stratification has deep cultural roots, leading to significant stigmatization and social exclusion for these individuals, despite legal protections and reforms aimed at improving their status. Efforts continue to challenge and change these entrenched societal norms and promote equality.
