WHAT HAPPENED WHEN INDIA GOT INDEPENDENCE AND BECAME A REPUBLIC:
“When India got Independence and Ambedkar being the principle author of the nation’s constitution and holding the law portfolio in the cabinet, Untouchability was declared unlawful. After centuries of hitherto unchallenged and illegal authority relating to human rights violations, Manusmriti in terms of laws of India became illegal overnight”, excerpt from Hinduism: beyond rituals,customs and traditions.
