This solution those problems was possible via social and political terms.The mentioned movement under the leadership of Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar, who is recognized as the architect of the Indian constitution, aimed to obtain both political and social rights and freedom for the Untouchables.By this movement, Dalits initially managed to attain political rights and to outlaw discrimination among people.And then, in order to facilitate the integration of Dalits within the social sphere, they decided to convert from Brahmanism to Buddhism in year 1956 and ten thousands of Dalits converted following Dr.Ambedkar. In the present day, the ex-Untouchables are living under the umbrellas of Buddhism, Islam or Christianity in various parts of India
