The Untouchables Who Were They and Why They Became Untouchables

Untouchability Ko Samajhne Ki Ek Nayi Drishti

The Untouchables Who Were They and Why They Became Untouchables Dr. B. R. Ambedkar ki sabse powerful aur eye-opening books me se ek hai. Is kitab me Ambedkar do seedhe sawaal poochte hain – Achhut kaun the? aur ve achhut kaise bane?
Ye sawal asan lag sakte hain, lekin inke jawab Bharatiya samaj ki sabse gehri sacchaiyon ko ujagar karte hain.

🧠 Achhut “Bahaar Ke Log” Nahi The

Ambedkar clearly batate hain ki untouchables koi alag ya bahar se aaye hue log nahi the. Ye wahi communities thi jo ancient Indian society ka hissa thi.
Unka kehna hai ki untouchability janm se nahi, balki history ke process ke through bani.

Isliye jo log search karte hain achhut kaun the aur ve achhut kaise bane, unke liye ye book foundational hai.

📜 Buddhism, Brahmanism aur Social Conflict

Book ka ek bahut strong argument ye hai ki untouchability ka rise Buddhism ke decline ke baad hua. Ambedkar ke according:

• Bahut si communities Buddhists thi
• Unhone Brahmanical rituals ko accept nahi kiya
• Is resistance ke response me unhe socially punish kiya gaya

Yahin se untouchability ek social weapon ke roop me develop hui, na ki religious necessity ke roop me.

⚖️ Untouchability = Power + Control

Ambedkar dikhate hain ki untouchability ka concept “pollution” se zyada power aur dominance se juda hua tha.
Religious texts ko baad me is tarah interpret kiya gaya taaki social exclusion ko justify kiya ja sake.

Is perspective se, ye book sirf history nahi balki caste system ka post-mortem ban jaati hai.

🌍 Aaj Ke Samay Me Relevance

Chahe untouchability constitutionally abolished ho chuki ho, lekin social level par discrimination abhi bhi exist karta hai.
Ambedkar ki ye book samjhati hai ki law change hona kaafi nahi hota jab tak soch nahi badalti.

Isliye ye book sirf past ko explain nahi karti, balki present ko samajhne me bhi madad karti hai.
