“B.R. Ambedkar took the 3,000 year old problem of caste and dealt with it in a scientific manner. He has given tools for all of us. Indian Constitution is one such tool. We are here to see that the provisions of the Constitution are implemented.”
“The problem today is that people (the government) are turning their backs on the values and spirit of the Constitution. They have their own interpretations. That’s why, we have to look through the lens of Dr. Ambedkar. He was one of the pillars of the Constitution.”
These were the views of Bezwada Wilson on Friday, December 8th, the occasion of the 61st death anniversary of Ambedkar. He further opined that Ambedkar does not need monuments or buildings to commemorate him . Instead, if we work towards mitigation of caste and social change, we will be honouring his memory.
