Equality is a key feature of Indian democracy. The Constitution provides for equal rights like universal adult franchise, equality before the law, and non-discrimination based on religion, caste, place of birth, or sex. However, forms of inequality still exist due to the caste system, class backgrounds, religious practices, and gender differences. The government is working to implement equality through laws, programs, and schemes to address issues like access to public places and abolition of untouchability.
