Dear Student,

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar aimed to make everyone see the power of caste prejudices within society.

Reasons behind people not sending their girls to school were:

They feared that schools would take girls away from home, prevent them from doing their domestic duties. Moreover, girls had to travel through public places in order to reach school. Many people felt that this would have a corrupting influence on them. They felt that girls should stay away from public spaces.
