On the other hand, if you give education to the lowest strata of Indian Society which is interested in blowing up the Caste System, the Caste System will be blown up … To make rich richer and poor poorer is not the way to abolish poverty.

If you give education [only to] those strata of Indian Society [that] has a vested interest in maintaining the Caste System for the advantage it gives them, then the Caste System will be strengthened.✊💙❤️

Ambedkar was unambiguous in his belief that education should be funded by the state so that it is accessible to all, and unequivocally opposed its commercialisation.

Ambedkar fundamentally altered the education system in India. In 1927, during a debate in the council on the Bombay University Bill, Ambedkar argued, “The backward classes have come to realise that after all education is the greatest material benefit for which they can fight.✊💙

We may forego material benefits … but we cannot forego our right and opportunity to reap the benefit of the highest education to the fullest extent.” ✊💙❤️
