Does the Constitution define the word "Untouchability"?

No “Untouchability” is not defined in the Constitution of India or in any statute. While Article 17 strictly abolishes "untouchability," neither the Constitution nor the underlying Protection of Civil Rights Act legally defines the term, leaving it to historical context and judicial interpretation.
