She criticised both the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party, saying that whichever party has been in power the conditions of the Bahujans has been “pathetic” all the same. She further warned of the “attacks on their constitutional right of reservation.”
“The social, economic and political conditions of the Bahujans in the country are as pathetic in the BJP rule as in the Congress rule. Due to a planned attack on their constitutional right to reservation, their situation is now turning into bad days instead of ‘good days’, which is very sad and worrying,” the post read.
Dr BR Ambedkar, fondly known as ‘Babasaheb’ was the chief architect of the Indian Constitution and is thus also called the ‘Father of the Indian Constitution’. Ambedkar was also the first law and justice minister of independent India.
Babasaheb was born into an impoverished Dalit Mahar Family in Madhya Pradesh. He fought tirelessly for the equal rights of marginalised sections of society. Later, he was revered as a ‘Dalit Icon’ for his contributions towards their rights.
