Best Answer

She was opposed to the cleaning of the latrines because she deemed it the work of the Untouchables, who were considered the lowest class of the social hierarchy in India, while she herself was part of the highest class of the social hierarchy. Gandhi, however, let her know that no work was beneath them and he promoted equality amongst all Indians, regardless of the Caste System.
