| Summary/Abstract |
As a practical social reformer, Gandhi noticed that inter-dining and inter-caste marriage are not going to abolish untouchability and inferiority among varnas exist. He strongly feels that the real cure lies in the change of heart. That is why, he was not enthusiastic about popularising these practices. To the questions whether inter-dining and inter-caste marriage are necessary for the removal of untouchability, his replay is both negative and affirmative. Negative because these are matters of individual concern and affirmative because, a person who refuses to take food touched by another on the plea inferiority, he is observing untouchability.
