Detailed Solution

In 1927, Ambedkar started a temple entry movement.
Ambedkar grew up in a Mahar family. He learned what caste prejudice meant in everyday life as a child. He was forced to sit outside the classroom on the ground and was not permitted to drink water from the taps used by upper-caste students. He received a fellowship to study in the United States after finishing high school. He wrote extensively about "upper"-caste power in contemporary society upon his return to India in 1919. In 1927, Ambedkar launched a temple entry movement in which his Mahar caste supporters took part. When the Dalits drank from the temple tank, the Brahman priests were outraged. Between 1927 and 1935, Ambedkar led three such temple entry movements.
