Which caste's members had to do the jobs nobody else qanted, such as cleaning toilets or butchering animals?

Answer 1

In the caste system in India, the members of the Dalit or the lower-caste, considered the lowest rung, were historically assigned the jobs nobody else wanted. These tasks included cleaning toilets, handling dead animals, and other forms of manual scavenging. Dalits faced severe social discrimination and were considered "untouchables" or "outcastes." Although efforts have been made to alleviate this discrimination, such practices still exist in some parts of India.
