India untouched
Yesterday saw this documentary. It is very insightful. Though I am aware of this issue, the documentary showed many different shades of untouchability. From remote villages to JNU, one of the best university in capital city of india, it is everywhere.
Everyone who is concerned about india must watch this documentary. it is available on youtube.

Here in IIT also I have seen this problem. All the sweepers or 4th grade workers are from the lowest caste of the society. No upper cast people do these jobs. It is not done by rules but subtly followed and done. Same is true for BMC 4th grade workers.
I feel that this situation will change if these people are economically empowered. Thus education, job must be created for this worse treated section of the society.

One easy way to change.
Start giving a helping hand to the 4th class workers. Clean garbage with them. It will boost their morale and put you in a position where you can directly help them, guide them, empower them. This is 'the' only way they can get inspired to get educated.
