How does a NATIONAL LAW UNIVERSITY violate the Constitution so brazenly?
MNLU Nagpur PhD: 23 seats reserved for SC/ST/OBC/NT. Filled: 4.

Unreserved cap: 12. Filled: 22.
They didn’t just bend the rules they bulldozed them.

19 Bahujan seats snatched away.
This is institutional casteism.

पुस्तकांसाठी घर बांधणारे डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर..!

स्वतःच घर बांधणे हे सर्वांचेच स्वप्न असते. पण डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांनी दादरच्या पूर्व भागातील हिंदू कॉलनीच्या परिससरात पुस्तकांसाठी घर बांधले. हे भारताच्या इतिहासातले पहिले व्यक्ती होते ज्यांनी पुस्तकांसाठी घर बांधले. या राजगृहात डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांनी 50 हजारांहून अधिक ग्रंथाचा संग्रह केला होता. ते त्यावेळी जगातील सर्वात मोठे वैयक्तिक ग्रंथालय होते.

डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर हे आयुष्यभर पुस्तकप्रेमी होते. पुस्तकांना ते आपला जीव की प्राण मानत होते.
पिलानी विद्यापीठासाठी घनश्यामदास यांनी डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांचा ग्रंथसंग्रह मागितला होता त्यासाठी बाबासाहेबांना त्याकाळी 6 लाख रुपये द्यायला तयार होते. परंतु पुस्तकप्रेमी डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांनी तो त्यांचा प्रस्ताव धुडकावून लावला होता.

डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर आंबेडकर एकदा म्हणाले होते, "जर तुमच्याकडे 2 रुपये असतील तर त्यातील 1 रुपयांची भाकरी घ्या आणि रुपयांचं पुस्तक." कारणं भाकरी तुम्हाला जगायला मदत करेल तर पुस्तक तुम्हाला कसे जगायचं ते शिकवेल.

डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांनी आपल्या लेखणीतून दलित आणि देशाच्या समस्यांवर प्रकाश टाकला. त्यांनी लिहिलेल्या महत्त्वाच्या ग्रंथांमध्ये अनहिलेशन ऑफ कास्ट, द बुद्ध अँड हिज धम्म, कास्ट इन इंडिया, हू वेअर द शूद्राज..?, रिडल्स इन हिंदुइझम, अशी अनेक महत्वपूर्ण पुस्तकं त्यांनी लिहिली आहेत.

डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांची साहित्यकृती त्यांच्या विशिष्ट सामाजिक दृष्टीकोनासाठी आणि विद्वत्तेसाठी प्रख्यात आहे, जी त्यांच्या काळातील त्यांची दूरदृष्टी आणि पुढचा विचार दर्शवते. आंबेडकरांचे ग्रंथ भारतासह जगभर मोठ्या प्रमाणावर वाचले जातात. भगवान बुद्ध आणि त्यांचा धम्म हे त्यांचे 'भारतीय बौद्धांचे धर्मग्रंथ' आहे आणि बौद्ध देशांमध्ये महत्त्वाचे आहे. त्यांचे डी.एस्सी. रुपयाच्या समस्येचे व्यवस्थापन: त्याची उत्पत्ती आणि त्याचे निराकरण यामुळे सेंट्रल बँक ऑफ इंडिया, रिझर्व्ह बँक ऑफ इंडियाची स्थापना झाली.

आज जागतिक पुस्तक दिन आहे, जागतिक पुस्तक दिनाच्या निमित्ताने मला डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांच्या शिकवणीची प्रकर्षाने आठवण येते ती म्हणजे "शिका, संघटित व्हा, आणि संघर्ष करा".
शिक्षणाने आपण आयुष्याचे मूल्यमापन करतो, आपले ध्येय ठरवतो, समाजासाठी काहीतरी करण्याची प्रेरणा घेतो म्हणून मी सर्व तरुणांना म्हणेल, "वाचाल तर वाचाल".
"जागतिक पुस्तक” दिनाच्या सर्व पुस्तक प्रेमींना हार्दिक शुभेच्छा..!

This is an outrageous and cruel response to man-animal conflict, in this case leopards in Western Maharashtra. You cannot round up 1500 leopards and send them to a ‘rescue-centre’ ‘zoo’ facility.
I sincerely hope it’s not approved. Need more thought on how to best handle the conflict

कलम से लगता है कुछ खास दिक्कत है भाजपा को !

तेजस्वी जी ठीक कहते हैं “ भाजपा युवाओं के हाथों में कलम नहीं तलवार देना चाहती है”

कलम पर GST 12% से 18% बढ़ा दिए!

कहते हैं किताबों पर GST घटा कर 5% कर दिया! फिर पन्नों ( Page) जिससे किताब तैयार होगा उस पर GST बढ़ा दिए!

कहे cement पर GST घटा रहे हैं , वहीं 10 दिन पहले सीमेंट का दाम उतना ही बढ़ा जितना आज GST घटा!

इसी को कहते हैं Financial Jugglery जिसे बच्चे भी डिकोड कर लेंगे!

Dear @paranjoygt,

Thanks for asking the real tough questions that our media at large has forgotten to ask. We listened to whole press conference and couldn't find the answer to your question.

Did you happen to get any response incase we missed?

Mr Home Minister @Dev_Fadnavis are you going to take any steps to improve the conviction rate under Prevention of Atrocities Act. We know law and order situation in the State is not good, however, Police and Prosecution is same, so why there is no improvement in the Conviction under PoA. Conviction rate of Maharashtra was 58.29 in the year 2020, which dropped to 54.36 in 2021, and further to 46.36 in 2022 but never ever low to 12.1 as is the case under Prevention of Atrocities Act. @DGPMaharashtra

District Magistrates never ever review prosecution cases under PoA in quaterly meetings nor CM conduct half yearly meetings.
#Caste #Atrocities

[Adv Priyadarshi Telang @priyadarshi07]

Several education activists and NGOs campaigned for Congress, however the education and health sector is under funded, affecting education of Minority & Marginalised. Though, enactment for SC & ST funds is there, the funds are been diverted in both Karnataka & Telangana.

In Maharashtra also many NGOs helped Maha Vikas Aghadi during its campaign. Many Ambedkarite Activists too jumped into the campaign, despite regimes of both of either Aghadi or Yuti reducing allocation in the sectors of health, education and Scholarships of SC, ST, OBC. In last decade, Maharashtra’s budget allocations for education, and specifically for Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST), reveal several important trends—including periods of decline in education’s share of the budget and underutilization of earmarked funds. Nominally, allocation for education has increased in rupee terms—from approximately ₹83,000 crore in 2018-19 to over ₹1,05,000 crore in the 2025-26 budget—the share of education in the total state budget has declined from around 17.6% in 2019-20 to just 13.9% in 2025-26.

In 2016-17, allocations were ₹6,725 crore for SCs and ₹5,357 crore for STs. The subsequent years saw some increases, but also severe underutilization and irregularities, especially for tribal education schemes and scholarships, for example, schemes like the “Construction of Ashram Schools” for tribal students saw allocation of ₹1,210 lakh in 2019-20, but only ₹9.6 lakh was actually spent—a 99% underutilization.

During Congress, or Aghadi and Yuti government, the pattern has been of reductions as well as chronic under-spending of the available funds—especially for SC/ST education schemes. CSOs and NGOs in Maharashtra should focus on demanding policy accountability, effective utilization, and monitoring of SC ST Budgets rather than campaign support for any party and appealing Dalits and Adivasis to vote for Maha Vikas Aghadi. The same applies, for Dalit Activists and Academicians, barring one or two, nothing comes on government budgets and policy shifts, preparing public position papers and briefings to hold state actors accountable.

Maharashtra’s education budget for marginalized groups has suffered both from reduced prioritization and underutilization, hope in near time CSOs and Activists would focus on focus on accountability and equity.

Earlier this year we brough together changemakers from our local network to share and celebrate their work, reflect on challenges, and build meaningful connections.

At SCI, we believe change happens when people feel supported, heard, and empowered to act - and we're committed to creating the spaces that make this possible.

We also foster collaboration across issues, sectors, and communities, because when we work together, we can amplify our collective impact and build the supportive networks that sustain us for the long haul.

[Adv Priyadarshi Telang @priyadarshi07]

Actions inside Police Stations are not within Public View @CPPuneCity

Acts such Intentionally insulting or humiliating in any place within public view or deliberately insulting or humiliating by caste name in public view constitute Atrocities, and CP Pune through Sr Police Inspector is saying alleged event was not in public view.

The amendment introduced in Section 18 A of the Prevention of Atrocities Act, stated that there would be no requirement for a preliminary enquiry or approval for the arrest of a person who had been accussed of committing an offence under the act, and judgement by SC and recently by Madras High Court that FIR first Enquiry next, as the petition was for negligence of duty, and yet Police is saying prima facie Girls were not humiliated, harrassed and by caste names in public view. All girls were called to Kothrud Police Station, they were humiliated and named by caste inside police stattion and Police is saying its not in Public View.

Whenever, matter is related to caste atrocities, activists has to protest outside police station to register FIR. Our Country and Maharashtra State does not have a full time Home Minister @Dev_Fadnavis, the CM has not called for High Level Meeting under PoA act, nor trainings for DySP and other police personnels are conducted for Social Legislations, by Yashada or @BartiConnect or @MSJEGOI.

The investigation as per rules of PoA, should be conducted by Dy SP, Home Minister conduct High Power meeting immediately and write to District SP to ensure strict compliance under PoA Act. @VBAforIndia

[Adv Priyadarshi Telang @priyadarshi07]

The case is a very important for debates around Human rights, police reform, and custodial justice in India.

The Aurangabad Bench of Bombay High Court strongly criticized the police for inaction and procedural bias, noting delays in registering an FIR and attempts at a cover-up, including alleged offers of bribes to the family ( ₹50 lakh and jobs ). The High Court ordered the police to register a criminal case (FIR) and to have the investigation conducted by a Deputy Superintendent-level officer, now Hon’ble Supreme Court upheld High Court Order. Thanks Balasaheb!

"जाति पूछ कर गोली मारी गई है” ?

मध्य प्रदेश के छतरपुर में एक दलित को राशन मांगने पर ब्राह्मण समाज के युवकों ने गोली मार दी।

पंकज प्रजापति (19) और उसका भाई तीन महीने से लंबित राशन लेने गए थे। राशन मांगने पर बहस हुई थी।

जब पुलिस ने सख्त कार्रवाई नहीं कि तो परिवार ने चक्का जाम किया, धरना दिया, तब पुलिस एक्शन में आई।

इसी दौरान पीड़ित पक्ष ने CSP अमन मिश्रा से पूछा

"पहलगाम में धर्म पूंछ कर मारा यहां जाति पूंछ कर... आप क्या कार्रवाई कर रहे हैं?"

बाकि प्रदेश में शांति है।👇👇👇
