In this instance, the following Fundamental Rights are being violated:
 Right to Freedom: Under the situation given here the Right to freedom of profession
of an Indian citizen has been violated due to force to continue in their jobs and to
be refused the other jobs.
 Culture and Educational Rights: The cultural and educational rights are also violated
due to discourage of their children from pursuing education because every child has
the right to get admission to any government or government aided educational
institution.
 Right to Equality: The Untouchability has also been abolished and everyone has the
right to equal opportunities in employment because all the citizens are equal before
law. Hence, right to equality is also violated.
