This paper projects the prominent social living of the villagers has been spotlighted by Raja Rao in Kanthapura which can rightly be called a social document where the whole novel bristles with the social problems like untouchability labour exploitation, widowhood, drinking and enervating superstitions misconceived as religion. It also portrays how Gandhiji aimed for a complete transformation of society and how he strongly and forcefully condemned untouchability.
