Mahatma Gandhi made several attempts to include untouchables in the national movements, including the following:

He organised satyagraha to ensure their admission into temples; He secured their access to public wells, tanks, roads, and schools;
He himself cleaned restrooms to honour the work of the bhangi (the sweepers); and He persuaded upper castes to change their hearts Gandhiji wrote the Resolution on Fundamental Rights during the Congress session in Karachi in March 1931.
