Detailed Solution

Untouchability has been abolished as per Article 17 of the Constitution of India. This means that no one can prevent Dalits/lower caste people from educating themselves, entering temples or using public toilets or other facilities. It also means that it is wrong to practice untouchability, and the government will not tolerate such practices. As per law, untouchability is a punishable crime now. Other parts of the Constitution support this argument against untouchability. For instance, Article 15 of the Constitution specifies that no citizen of India will face discrimination on the basis of religion, caste, sex, or place of birth. This ensures that all citizens of India are equal, and there should be no discrimination.
