has gloss	swe: Harijans är Mahatma Gandhis benämning på ett hinduiskt kast, dalit, de oberörbara. Bakgrunden till namnet är att han inte gillade kastsamhället och gav den lägsta kasten ett annat och mer angenämt namn, nämligen Harijans som betyder Haris barn. Hari är ett av den hinduiska guden Vishnus namn.
