Option 1 : 1 only

The correct answer is 1 only.

Mahatma Gandhi

  • He is also known in India as the father of the nation.
  • He was born on 2nd October 1869 in the Porbandar region of Gujarat.
  • He was born and raised in a Hindu merchant caste family and was trained in law in London.
  • In 1932, Gandhi founded the Harijan Sevak Sanghas as part of his efforts to eradicate the concept of ‘untouchability from India’s caste system. Hence, Statement 1 is correct.
  • He put his close friend, the pioneering industrialist Ghanshyam Das Birla, in charge of the organization.
  • The group’s efforts have helped the depressed classes to access public places such as temples, schools, roads, and water resources that were previously available only to those of privilege.
  • Gandhi believed that standing at the heart of the inherited Hindu tradition, including its caste system, it was possible to overcome untouchability.
  • He firmly believed that ultimately the removal of untouchability depended on the change of heart of millions of caste Hindus. 
  • Gandhi had insisted that untouchability was sanctioned by the Shastras and thus part and parcel of Hindu dharma. Hence, Statement 2 is not correct.
