A
Jagjivan Ram
B
Dr. B. R. Ambedkar
C
Acharya Kripalani
D
Mahatma Gandhi
Correct Answer: Mahatma Gandhi
The scrapping of separate electorates was only the beginning of the end of untouchability. Under Gandhi’s inspiration, while he was still in prison, a new organization, Harijan Sevak Sangh was founded to combat untouchability and a new weekly paper, the Harijan, was started. Harijan means "children of God"; it was Gandhi’s name for the "untouchables".
