A Correct answer
Explanation

Reason refers to rational thinking and logic. Gandhiji opposed untouchability because it violated rational principles of human equality. Myriad means countless or many. Norms are societal customs. Legislature refers to law-making bodies. Reason is the best fit because Gandhiji framed untouchability as a logical inconsistency, not just a social norm or legal issue.
