Detailed Solution

Jotiba Phule, B.R. Ambedkar and Periyar Ramaswami Naicker worked to establish a society in which caste inequalities are absent.
In India, caste division is unique, where rituals approve hereditary occupational classification. A social grouping of people who shared the same caste was meant to work in the same industry. The foundation of the caste system was the prejudice and exclusion of the 'outcaste' communities. They were made to suffer under the dreadful custom of untouchability. This is why political reformers and social activists like Jotiba Phule, Mahatma Gandhi, B.R. Ambedkar, and Periyar Ramaswami Naicker pushed for the creation of a society devoid of caste inequities and did their part to make it a reality. Castes and the caste system in contemporary India have undergone significant changes, partially due to their efforts and partly due to other socioeconomic changes such as the expansion of literacy and education, urbanisation, occupational mobility, etc.
