Answer: C

Untouchability is abolished by Article 17.

Article 17 abolishes untouchability, forbids its practice in any form, and makes enforcing any disability arising from it an offence punishable by law, as provided in the Protection of Civil Rights Act, 1955.

Article 14 guarantees equality before law, Article 15 prohibits discrimination on grounds of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth, and Article 22 gives protection against arbitrary arrest and detention.
