You are the Father of Indian Constitution, which is the largest and bulkiest constitution in the world. It is also the constitution with highest number of amendments in the world. The number of amendments to Indian Constitution is more than all the amendments of all other Constitutions in the world.
Dear Ambedkar, you are responsible for the reservation quota policy, which was unable to eliminate inequality even after 60 years. In fact, your quota policy is directly responsible for keeping the caste system alive in the country. Your brain could not think of any other policy better than this stupid quota policy. If you wanted to help the backward people, there are 1000 other ways to help than this discriminatory policy.
This article says that you dedicated your life to fight against caste system. But your quota policy is directly depends on this caste system, so you are depending on something you want to fight against??? What an irony?
Your brain is truly a BACKWARD brain. It could not think of anything better than a stupid, useless quota policy. 100 colleges every year dedicated exclusively for all poor people irrespective of religion and caste was all that was needed to eliminate caste system from this country. Instead you strengthened caste system in this country by your stupid thinking.
Even if Reservation was the brain child of Baba Saheb Ambedkarji, still he had a clear vision of how this policy would be implemented and what is the maximum period required for this policy to prevail. There is no doubt that the policy was well meant and required during the post independant indian era. It was the dawn of new india and bringing the socially neglected and downtrodden people into the mainstream can never be negated. However there were some basic flaws in the policy which enabled opportunistic politicians and unfortunately his own sect of people to take advantage. One of the most basic flaw of this policy was that Ambedkarji failed to see that in a country of millions its not only a certain section of people who are downtrodden but also the large part of poverty struck population who do not belong to the special section remains to be downtrodden and neglected. This section of economically backward and still forward caste people still suffer from reservation. Reservation was never meant to be a revenge tool but it was a tool to bring equality and a casteless social structure for hindus. Unfortunately for the latter day politicians after Ambedkarji it has only become a revenge tool, a tool by which they infuse only hatred between upper caste and lower castes. A politician today may talk about atrocities done on lower caste people by upper caste in 18 or 17 century but will not talk about the improvement of the situation.

A politician will talk about how injustice was done against lower caste people, but do we really see any politician who in their own personal capacity have done anything for the special category people. If they do something its only to grab media attention and we indians at least are smart enough now to understand this. The other thing which I am sure will hurt Ambedkarji's soul is the attitude of their own people. The attitude od most of the special category(there are exceptions to this), where they think that Reservation is their birthright and they would live and die with reservation. These are the people who are defying the very objective of Ambedkarji's dream of a casteless hindu society in india. They want to cling on to their reserved category so that they can keep on getting the benefits irrespective of whether they need it or not, irrespective of whether it is meant for them or not. Recently we have seen people killing each other to get into the reserved category. This could have been a nightmare for Ambedkarji if he would have been alive today.
Dr. B.R Ambedhkar is a God to some and not to others. He might have copied the constitution but we are foolish enough to follow some of his outdated laws (like Reservation) till this day and I am not sure if India really entered the 21st century. However, it goes without saying that reservation failed to uplift the really deserving and needy people. I wish there would be some program to bring equality to all without us fighting over outdated divisions called castes.

By the way why lower caste people eat beef and upper caste people are not eating beef though both are hindus?
Dr Ambetkar was groomed by a Brahmin to reach towering heights. He married Savitha, obviously a Brahmin. Yet throughout his life he criticised brahmin community in particular and hindus in general!!!!What an irony???

Ambedkar criticized justly, the caste system and untouchability,which has no sanction within the hindu scriptures, but which were created by the power hungry brahmins.
He was indeed a great man, who brought justice to the so called untouchables, and revived Buddhism, which is Buddhas variant of Hinduism, and is a sect of hinduism,minus the caste system and untouchability.
All Hindus should work hard for the eradication of all idiocies and superstitions in Hinduism, like the caste system and untouchability,which has no sanction in the scriptures , and is truly adharma and a violation of ahimsa as well.

what about the reservation quotas?it may be beneficial for the low castes people but it is injustice to the other castes, as u can see in all educational institutions , the deserving candidates doesnt get the seats and these people get it due to reservations.
Rememberance to Dr. Ambedkar, Father of Constitution, which ensures our fundamental rights and duties in the political and judicial anarchy called India.
