Discrimination In pre Independent India- is easily seen in each part of it's society i.e.' politically, socially and economically. Violation of basic rights is due to caste, religion, work they do, and at place they live is all you see in India. People are treated worst than animal. But thing's are changing with the time but not with that pace as required, this is the reason why we see so many problems after 70 year's of independent India.
