On 17 December 1946, BR Ambedkar addressed the Muslim League's absence from the Constituent Assembly, urging the Congress to show statesmanship and avoid Hindu-Muslim conflict through conciliation.
Ramabai’s early death on 27 May 1935 stoked the mythology around her. To many Dalits, she is Ramai but to Ambedkar, she was Ramu— ‘What if you had not found these orders of poverty sweet?’
In a post on 'X', PM Modi asserted that Ambedkar's principles and ideals would strengthen and accelerate the creation of a self-reliant and developed India.
SFJ chief Pannun claimed responsibility for vandalism and labelled Ambedkar ‘a devil’. FIR has been registered against unidentified miscreants over latest incident from Phillaur.
Reciting Ambedkar’s name in a sing-song manner, Shah was ridiculing the father of the Constitution. His tone was sneering, like a send-up of Ambedkarite activists.
Amid the ongoing ideological slugfest, I strongly recommend reading Ambedkar in his own words. For his acolytes, it is important to remember Ambedkar’s advice on independent thinking.
BJP says it has given Ambdekar due respect, accuses Congress of undermining him. DMK MP brings up BJP leaders' pre-poll rhetoric of changing Constitution, bringing Hindu rashtra.
China flaunted military might & modernisation as it displayed stealth drones, anti-satellite system & cyber warfare contingent during parade to mark victory over Japan in WWII.
From Munir’s point of view, a few bumps here and there is par for the course. He isn’t going to drive his dumper truck to its doom. He wants to use it as a weapon.
