Solution

The correct option is C Both 1 and 2
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Both Gandhiji and Ambedkar considered caste based discrimination as a social evil. Gandhi did not question the prohibition of inter-caste dining and that there were such prohibitions even amongst the lower castes themselves.

But Gandhi and Ambedkar differed in their strategies to tackle the issues of caste system - While Gandhi wanted reform, Ambedkar wanted annihilation of caste
