Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Writings and Speeches Vol. 1

Abstract

"In Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, we have not only a crusader against the caste system, a valiant fighter for the cause of the downtrodden in India but also an elder statesman and national leader whose contribution in the form of the Constitution of India will be cherished forever by posterity. In fact his fight for human rights and as an emancipator of all those enslaved in the world gave him international recognition as a liberator of humanity from injustice, social and economic. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru paid a glowing tribute to Dr. Ambedkar while moving a condolence resolution in the Parliament as follows: 'Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar was a symbol of revolt against all oppressive features of the Hindu Society.' There is, therefore, a vital need to preserve the thoughts of this great son of India as expressed by him in his writings and speeches. While some efforts are being made in that direction by some institutions and research scholars, there is an urgent need to bring together all the material available and publish it in a series of volumes.
