Solution

The correct option is B Tamil Nadu
People belonging to the so-called lower castes were treated as untouchables and were devoid of rights as basic as access to drinking water. Many reformers in different parts of the country raised their voice against untouchability. In Tamil Nadu, Periyar Ramaswamy was the one to do so.
