Answer
Vaikom satyagraha was a protest against untouchability in Travancore, led by Mahatma Gandhi and Periyar E.V. Ramasamy in 1924-25. The satyagraha was successful in securing access to the public roads for the lower castes, including the Dalits, and the opening of the Vaikom temple to all Hindus.
