A few days before #AshokaVijayaDashami, I had the opportunity to visit #Nagpur’s sacred #Deekshabhoomi.
I enjoyed learning more about the Buddhist memorial, where Dr BR #Ambedkar embraced Buddhism on 14 October 1956.
His values have contributed strongly to 🇮🇳's global esteem
Remembering the Poona Pact.
It is true that Gandhi through his fast had coerced Babasaheb into the Poona Pact.
However, Babasaheb was hardly the person to bend to someone else’s will !!!
Understand this, my fellow Dalits brothers and sisters.
Babasaheb was clear that he would not “tolerate anyone on whose will and consent settlement depends, to stand on dignity and play the Grand Moghul.”
Babasaheb made the Savarnas-led by Gandhi to agree to measures in the Poona Pact which were precursors to the world’s largest affirmative programme — the policy of reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs.
People, often, overlook that Babasaheb was a master strategist as well.
Babasaheb was aware of the political cunningness of the Savarnas and knew that they would never, never accept his demand for the separate electorates but he forced the Savarnas to accept that the depressed classes must be given a political voice and made sure that no future political discussion takes place without the inclusion of the depressed classes!
This very insistence of Babasaheb led to 147 seats being reserved in the legislature; over twice as many as what had been allotted under the Communal Award.
This was one of many Babasaheb’s wins over the Savarnas and the Congress to politically accept and include the depressed classes.
Jai Bhim 💙💪🏻✊🏻
PM Modi proudly tells the UN and other nations that India is the land of Buddha.
Yet Buddhists don't have full control over Mahabodhi Mahavihara in Bodh Gaya, the holiest site in Buddhism. Why does Caste Hindu dominance continue?
Why is PM Modi silent on this injustice?
Upon landing in Mumbai, I went to Chaitya Bhoomi and prayed there. It feels very special to come back here again. Every Indian is grateful to Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar for giving us a Constitution we take immense pride in. Our Government has always and will always strengthen the ideals of Dr. Ambedkar and the values enshrined in our Constitution. Jai Bhim!
A Scholar committed suicide!
Majority didn't want to know why he took such extreme step? But they definitely wants to know whether he was Dalit or OBC?
I can feel you #Rohit what you have gone through!
