BABA SAHIB DR. AMBEDKAR
BIRTH DAY CELEBRATED AT BEDFORD

Report :

Arun
Kumar, Bedford

On Sunday 29th May, 120th birth anniversary of Dr. Ambedkar was jointly celebrated by Dr. Ambedkar Mission Society, Bedford, Sri Guru Ravidas Sabha Bedford and Bhagwan Valmik Sabha Bedford at Bedford. From the last few years these organisations are trying to bring all communities on one platform so that in future they are able to work on common issues. Due to this initiative, a large number of people from various communities from all over the country came to pay tributes to Babasaheb Dr Ambedkar. The theme of this event was caste based discrimination.

Mr. Om Parkash, President of Sri Guru Ravidas Sabha Bedford welcomed all guests and opened the function. Paying tribute to Dr. Ambedkar, Mr. Sat Paul stated, “The dream of Dr. Ambedkar would be only fulfilled when the castes are abolished. Racial discrimination in the West and apartheid in South Africa have been abolished, now the caste needs to be eradicated.” Inspired from the ideals of Dr. Ambedkar, many organisations campaigned to include caste discrimination in the British legislation. Dr. Raj Chand, vice President, Anti Caste Discrimination Alliance gave a presentation on the history and the current situation of the Equality Act. He explained that now the government’s own survey confirmed the existence of caste discrimination in the UK but Government seems to be reluctant to accept the findings of the report. He stressed on the need for solidarity and keep on campaigning until the objective is achieved. He congratulated Bedford organisations for setting an example in that direction.

Councillor Mohamed Yasin, Speaker of the Bedford Borough Council was surprised to know the greatness of Dr. Ambedkar. He said, “Being born into an oppressed community, to become a first Law Minister of independent India and write its constitution was a marvellous achievement. Dr. Ambedkar didn’t use his education for himself but the whole community. That is what makes him unique amongst others. To create a fair society based on his ideals would be a true tribute to him.”

Quoting from Prof. S.K. Thorat’s report on caste discrimination in the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, Mr. Arun Kumar explained that though various provisions to outlaw caste discrimination were made in the Indian constitution, but they have become only show case for the outer World. A film ‘Death of Merit’ was shown where Dalit students in the premier institutes were tortured and discriminated in such a way that they are forced to commit suicides and this trend is increasing day by day. Dalits are systematically discouraged to enter into higher education. This film was well received.

Mr. Ram Murti Suman, President of Federation of Ambedkarite & Buddhist Organisations, UK stated, “True Ambedkarism is to fight against caste and until or unless caste is there, discrimination would remain. Ambedkarites in the UK have been campaigning against caste discrimination for the last the forty years but people have just begun to realise the effect of castes. I am happy that message has gone through. Barriers need to be broken.” The Chief Guest, Mr. Vidya Bhushan Ravat, a Human rights campaigner, film maker and Ambedkarite writer termed Ambedkarism as a concept to unite people not to divide. He referred to a new concept not only in UP but also in all India of portraying an icon from a caste and worshipping him or her. He further stated that, “By doing so they are strengthening caste and Brahmanism. Instead of uniting they are getting divided which is a very disturbing development and that concept is an anti Ambedkarism. He travelled various countries. People talk about civil rights movement and King Martin Luther Junior but not many know about Ambedkar. It is our duty especially NRIs to make aware the people of the World about the contribution he made to uplift the oppressed people. He advised that Dalits must not depend upon on government jobs only. They should become entrepreneurs and start businesses. They should be in all fields. On positive note, he suggested to celebrate our achievements. Due to Dr. Ambedkar’s efforts, Dalits are now at high positions in all fields but a lot to be done. Talking on land grab movement, he said that Dalits’ land had already been grabbed on the name of development.

Dr. Diepisiye Kuku, a sociologist from America who spent several years at Delhi University talked about his experiences as a black American and the civil rights movement in USA. He compared the civil rights movement with the Dalit movement. He was shocked to see the agitation by doctors with brooms in their hands against reservation in medical institutes in Delhi. The doctors were suggesting that if Dalits became doctors, only cleaning jobs would be left for upper castes. He said that this type of attitude from upper castes reminded him about the treatment of black people meted out by the white people in America. R.L. Sampla, Dharm Pal Nahar, Mrs. Raj Dhariwal, Mrs. Nirmala Chahal and many others spoke on the occasions. Sat Paul, Sam Kalyan and Arun Kumar conducted the programme. A ladies group from Bhagwan Valmik Sabha, Gianni Gurmit Singh and group from Sri Guru Ravidas Sabha, and Mr. K.L. Chand recited missionary songs and entertained the audience. Posted on June 1, 2011

London (14th April)- 120th birth anniversary of Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar was celebrated at India House by the High Commissioner of India in cooperation with the Federation of Ambedkarite & Buddhist Organisations, UK (FABO,UK). On this auspicious occasion, many dignitaries from all over the country including Mayors from London boroughs, Cllr Nirmal Singh Gill of Barking and Degenham, Cllr Harbhajan Singh of Brent Cllr Christina Valcarcel of Lambeth and Cllr Jagjit Singh Grewal of Slough Council, were present. Representatives of various organizations such as Shri Guru Ravidass Sabhas, Sri Guru Ravidass International Organisation for Human Rights UK, Ambedkar International Mission, Sri Bhagwan Valmik Sabha, BSP Overseas of UK, Shri Guru Ravidass Supreme Council of UK were present. Other distinguished guests were Kantibhai Solanki, former minister for social welfare, Gujarat and Vijaybhai Rathod, business entrepreneur from Gandhinagar, Gujarat. Celebrations commenced with the garlanding of Babasaheb’s bust by the High Commissioner of India, Mr. Nalin Surie and the Chief Guest, Sir Mota Singh, former Judge of British High Court. The Ambedkar bust was donated by FABO, UK during the Ambedkar Centenary year in 1992.

The function was opened by the Buddhist prayers administered by the Most Rev. Dr. Sumana. He mentioned that the senior monks present at the great conversion to Buddhism by Dr. Ambedkar were associated with him for 3-4 decades. Dr, Ambedkar was one of the illustrious sons of Mother India and stands tall in the struggle for modern India.

Expressing his pride in jointly celebrating Ambedkar birth anniversary, the High Commissioner of India, Mr. Nalin Surie said, “Dr. Ambedkar shaped the constitution of India in which we witness today the socio-economic change in the development. He was one of the great geniuses of India. For political democracy to be successful, it must be founded on social democracy. The constitution he helped to write permits us to achieve this. Babasaheb is not limited to India alone but its underlying message of ensuring justice, and social, economic and political equality for all in the society now widely acknowledged all over the world.”

Welcoming the guests, Gira Chakravarty of FABO UK emphasized that Babasaheb Ambedkar was not only a pathfinder, saviour and emancipator but also a famous leader of the national freedom movement. Social justice and human rights ideals in his practical approach of struggle raised him above the leaders at his time. He had a special place in society. His qualities were multi-faceted and his accomplishments made him a great social reformist, philosopher and legend in legal affairs.

She said, “Dr Ambedkar’s struggle against caste oppression in India was relatively more scientific. His approach was down-to-earth. He went deeper and deeper in criticising and evaluating the root cause of the issue which provided cultural and social basis to the caste system in India. That is why his contribution matters a lot! He was not an atheist, but he was not a victim of blind faith. He converted to Buddhism, a way of human living and provides a basis for a caste-less society.”

The Chief Guest, Sir Mota Singh, QC termed Dr. Ambedkar as a symbol for social justice. He said, “The drafting of Indian constitution itself is a monument of his genius. He was the founder of fundamental rights and social revolution. I salute him today on his 120th birth anniversary and his dream may fulfill by implementing his ideals in the coming years. He recalled the grand celebration which took place at Gray's Inn during Dr. Ambedkar centenary celebration in 1990.”

Paying his tribute to Dr. Ambedkar, Prof. Muhammad Arif of London School of Economics said,
“Babasaheb belongs to a group of great people who changed the course of history. He was an outstanding intellectual, moral and political leader. His life was full of hardship as he portrayed in his writings and speeches but he was resilient, courageous and had faith in the ultimate success of his mission. He had faith in the invincible power of the human spirit in the pursuit of justice and human dignity as he pointed out in one of his speeches. ‘educate, agitate and organize: have faith in yourself. With justice on our side I do not see how we can lose our battle.’ Although his message was revolutionary, he believed in non-violence and felt that the struggle for equality should be waged at the political, moral and constitutional levels. He believed in the orderly removal of inequality”.

“Babasaheb’s invaluable gift to India was the Indian constitution. The constitution he gave was democratic, secular and had universal adult suffrage without any discrimination. His social philosophy as he put it was enshrined in three words: liberty, equality and fraternity. Many people, perhaps, do not know that these concepts were Indian concepts and were embodied in the teaching of the Buddha, these words of wisdom were uttered around 500BC, and therefore not borrowed from the French Revolution.”

Elaborating on the origin of democracy, Mr. Vijay Khutan, Senior Crown Prosecutor and meditation teacher, explained that Dalits gave democracy to the World. They were the ones who brought it forth . He further stated that there was enough evidence to show that Buddha was born in a democracy. In fact Alexandra, the Great of Greece was astonished to see how the free man and democracy was functioning in India. 5000 years back during the Indus Valley civilization, the town planning and large assembly halls reflected a powerful equality in governance. Mr. Khuttan observed that those people were spiritually and socially more advanced than the modern society.

Mr. Satpal Muman, General Secretary of Ambedkar International Mission, London introduced Mr. S Anand of Navayana Publishing House and an Adivasi artist couple, Subhash and Durgabai Vyam who produced a book ‘Bhimayana (experience of unaccountability) in which they depicted the life of Dr. Ambedkar with Gothic art. Mr. S. Anand told that the book was launched in collaboration with One World Action and Nehru Centre and was very much impressed by the response it received. He quoted from the book the famous quote of Babasaheb ''Battle of Human Personality'. He identified himself as one of the true children of “Ambedkar era.”

Mr. Yograj Ahir, President, Sri Guru Ravidass Sabha, Southall also spoke. Mr. R M Summan, President of Federation of Ambedkarites and Buddhist Organizations, UK recited a Punjabi poem and also proposed a vote of thanks. The programme was proficiently anchored by Gira Chakaravarti. At the end of the function, Indian vegetarian food was served by the courtesy of the High Commissioner of India. Posted on May 1, 2011

BORN 'UNTOUCHABLE', HE FOUGHT FOR FREEDOM AND EMANCIPATION
OF ALL CASTES AND HELPED TO DRAFT THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA

• Editorial
• The Guardian, Saturday 30 April 2011
• Article history
Among the most tiresome of all observations made about the royal wedding was that it represented some kind of triumph of social mobility. The new Duchess of Cambridge is the great-great-granddaughter of a coalminer, runs this story, and her mother worked as an air hostess. Never mind that she also went to Marlborough College. Such cant brings to mind a more potent example of social mobility – and of that mobility being put to significant purpose. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar was born in 1891, an untouchable in an India run by the British – that is to say a subaltern twice over, subjugated by an imperial government and by high-caste Indians. He died in 1956, with doctorates from Columbia University and the LSE. Most importantly, he will be remembered as the emancipator of other untouchables and the jurist in charge of drafting the constitution of the Indian republic. Ambedkar fought for a free India, and for the freedom of all castes within that state. He sought advancement not just for himself, nor for those like him, but also for Brahmins, Muslims, Sikhs and Buddhists. His time at the bar in London and at the LSE, but most of all his sterling example, surely make him more than deserving of public memorial here. "How long shall we continue to deny equality in our social and economic life?" asked Ambedkar. "If we continue to deny it for long, we will do so only by putting our political democracy in peril." His message, intended for 20th-century India, is just as relevant for 21st-century Britain.

A prominent freedomfighter who planted a tree of Aad-Dharami Qaum. It is sure, one day must come and there will be an Aadi-vassidom.
DALIT-E-ANKHI GADHRI BABA MANGU RAM MUGGOWALIA JEE

Respected Editor
Brother Prem Chumber ji, Ambedkartimes group

Sohang Jai Gurdev ji !!

A qaum who had a well developed, rich and older culture where there was (an equality, librty and fraternity) humanity. Inhabitants of this civilisation called aadivassi who had aad-dharam ideology. That civilised ideology exists in the sindhuGhati Civilisation. In that civilisation, aryans (who were illitrate, cruel, dishonest, frauder and slaughters) came from outside the Bharata. They begged from aadivassi for shelter. Aadivassi who trusted in humanity, by their goodness, they provided sheltr. By the passing of time these aryans started (mischieves, dishonestings, cruelty) inhuman behaviour with Aadivassi, got empowerment in their hand and strted to rule inhuman manners. After that they divided man into four castes. Mannu wrote Manusmriti, they named themselves good class and shudra (untouchable) to aadivassi (very low caste). Since then the proseperous civilisation of aadivassi was finished and started inhuman behaviour of aryans manuvadi ideology.

By the passing of sufferings, the time had been entered in the 9th decade of 19th century. When there was born a child to his mother Smt. Attri and father Sh Harnam Das Gangar in the village of Muggowa, tehsil mahalpurin, district Hoshiarpur, Punjab in the addivassi qaum. He got elementry education from a village sadhu. He also learned English to help his father' in his business. He went to America in 1909. There he saw, also, a same Indian discrimination ideology from a Punjabi Zimidar. There he joined Lala Hardyal's ghadrits party. He was a group leader who had a very hard task to bring weapons by ship to India. But unfortunately, British govt got information about that ship. British army attacked on that ship by cannons and many persons were died. But fortunately Baba Mangu R Muggowalia jee had a narrow escaped. In the last, Babu Mangu Ram ji came to his native village after sixteen years.

A man who came from America where he saw civilised culture but in his own country discrimination by the cruel discriminators. One day when he knew about discrimination and bullism by his own villager zimindar, with his relatives. Then Babu jee awoked up and talked to a advocate. Then advocate advised him to select any other name besides of the ashoot (untouchable). So Babu ji did according to the advocate's advised. He started school in his village. But on 11 and 12 jun of 1926, Babu ji called all dalit samaaj and discussed about the new point of view. On this day He planted a seed of (a lit of their aadi guruss and ancestor's equality, fraternity ideology) AAD-DHARAM (aadi-matt) in the assembling of all downtrodden dalits smaaj. That Aad-Dharam which was (or is) very ancient religion of ancestors than all religions. To emancipate from hinduwad's inhuman civil system, he started a legal fight for his dalit qaum's dignity and get rempowerment. By this new point of views Aad-Dharam, he revived conciousness of aadi gurus, was expanded from Lyalpur Pakistan to india specially in Punjab, north, south east and west. Aad-dharam mandal movement encouraged the whole dalits. Every dalit started to consider himself as an Aad-dharmi. Aad-dharam movement was getting his popularity among the whole united dalit smaj. This movement (ofwhich religious granth is Aad-Parkash) has got emancipation from brahmnical idealogy and established an aad-dharam as a qaum and religion of real inhabitants. In this struggle Baba Sahab Bhim Rao Ambedkar Jee had played a vital role. So after the hard struggle of this movement has convinced to British Govt. to register (include) as a dalits of Punjab's Aad-Dharam religion in the next (1931) census. By seeing this strong struggle, the British govt. understood the origin of this country's aadivassi qaum. Biritish govt. Had accepted this request and declared in the next census of 1931. So by this marvelous and great victory, Babu ji became a great political powerman. He played a very important role during fight of Bhimrao with Gandhi at the point of dalit's leader in the roundtable confrence at London in 1932. Then Babu jii sent many telegram in favour of Bhim Rao Ambedkar against Gandhi. In 1937 AadDharam got seven seats out of eight reserved seats in the Punjab. In Punjab, 1946 , Babu ji elected as an MLA and remained till 1952. By the passing of time, Babu ji still on his confirmed and strong thinking about his aad-dharmi community. In 1977, Babu ji went to U.K. by the invitation of settelled aad-dharmis from punjab. After a long and hard struggle of his life (either for himself or Aad-Dharmi qaum), that great spirit departed from this world after his life visit ( of 94 yrs, 3months and 8 days) on 22 Aprill 1980.

Babu Mangu Ram Muggowalia who was a great ghadrist, emancipator, editor, writer, poet, ironman, a dalit hero, rooted up the inequality slavery system, lit light of education and struggle thinking among his qaum against brahaminwad, a pioneer political leader who played a marvoulous role and became a massiha of downtrodden aadivassi dalits and it will be forever. Come whole united aadivassi qaum, wherever, whenever and whatwver we are, dont' forget our rich civilised aadimatt. We keep it forever and pass on our next generation to genrations. And ther will be our Aadivassi Dom. Why we should divide, fight ourselves? It is use less for us, by this thinking we shoud not make a Begumpura if we continue listen to manuwadi thinking. We must beware from these type castiests. why we fight and greed among us. Let us try to unite and get our aadidom which was gripped by manuwadi ideology. If we come whole dalits under the only one flag, one plateform without any wrong thinking, it will be sure we dalits can make our begumpura. If we dedicate a little part of our life at the footpaths of our great Heros then we can make sure begumpura. As AMBEDKARTIMES GROUP IS DEDICATED TO BABA SAHIB AMBEDKAR JI IN THE MEMORY OF BABA MANGU RAM MUGGOWALIA FREEDOM FIGHTERS. In this point of view I appriciate Ambedkartimes group which is a establised plateform at where all readers and writers can express their views from various part of the world. Properly, like this thinking it will be our real and respectful and humble homage to BABA SAHIB MANGU RAM MUGGOWALIA JI on his thirty first death anniversary day on April 22, 2011.
Jai Aad-vattan! Jai Aad-Dharam!! Jia Bharat!!! Jai Bhim!!! Jai Baba Babu Mangu Ram Muggowalia!!!!

DR. AMBEDKAR, SWARAJ & NATION
Prem Kumar Chumber (www.ambedkartimes.com)

Swaraj without extinction of caste had no meaning for Dr. Ambedkar. In his undelivered speech to the Jat Pat Todak Mandal of Lahore, he said, “In the fight for swaraj you fight with the whole nation on your side. In this, you have to fight against the whole nation and that too your own. But it is more important than swaraj. There is no use having swaraj, if you cannot defend it. More important than the question of defending swaraj is the question of defending Hindus under the swaraj. In my opinion, only when the Hindu society becomes a casteless society that it can hope to have strength enough to defend itself. Without such internal strength, swaraj for Hindus may turn out to be only a step towards slavery”. Thus, it was Dr. Ambedkar’s subaltern perspective, which distinguished his conception of swaraj from that of the protagonists of the various shades of the national freedom movement. In his editorial in the Bahishkrit Bharat, Dr. Ambedkar wrote on 29 July 1927 “If Tilak had been born among the untouchables, he would not have raised the slogan ‘Swaraj is my birthright’, but he would have raised the slogan ‘Annihilation of untouchability is my birthright’”.

Dr. Ambedkar’s understanding of the question of the identity and existence of the nation was based on his incisive analysis of the oppressive character of the Hindu community. Since the dominant Hindu discourse of Indian nationalism remained indifferent towards removal of the caste system; and the economic analysis of the communist secular socialist school also failed to highlight the issue of caste in its mechanical interpretation of class, Dr. Ambedkar – himself an untouchable and victim of untouchability – formulated his own framework from the perspective of the untouchables for the understanding of the system of caste and untouchability. The foundations of Dalit-Bahujan nationalism lie in this framework developed by Dr. Ambedkar. It aimed at restructuring the Indian society into a casteless and classless and egalitarian Sangha. Annihilation of caste was its central theme. Caste for Dr. Ambedkar was nothing but Brahmanism incarnate. “Brahmanism is the poison which has spoiled Hinduism”. Dr. Ambedkar realised that any form of nationalism whose roots were steeped into Hinduism could not be a solution to the problem of Dalits. Any discourse of nationalism bereft of annihilation of caste was just not acceptable to him. The agenda of annihilation of caste was so important to him that it became a central point of his struggle against colonial rule. In the first Round Table Conference, he minced no words in criticizing the British government for its failure to undo untouchability. Let us join our hands to do away with such social evils by taking an oath on the 120th birthday of Bharat Ratan Bodhisattva Babasahib Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar. The Ambedkar Times Group (Ambedkartimes.com, Ambedkartimes.org & Ambedkar Times) congratulates you all on this most important day in the life of the millions of downtrodden and takes immense pride paying floral tribute to our revered Baba Sahib, a great sociologist, economist, political scientist, human rights advocate, architect of the constitution of Independent India and messiah of the subalterns the world over.

Baba Ssahib Dr. Ambedkar's last message:- Tell my people, Nanak Chand, that whatever i have been able to achieve for them, i have done it single-handed, passing through crushing miseries & endless troubles, in the midst of abuses hurled at me from all sides, more so from the Hindu press , fighting with my opponents, all my life, as also with a handful of my own people who deceived me for their selfish ends. But i will continue to serve the country & my down-trodden people till my end. With great difficulty, i have brought the Caravan where it is seen today. Let the Caravan march on & further on, despite the hardles, pitfalls & difficultes that may come its way. They must rise to the occasion, if they want to live an honourable & respectable life. If my people, my lieutenants are not able to take the Caravan ahead, they should leave it where it seen today, but must not, under any cicumstances allow the Caravan to go back. This is my message, probably the last message in all my seriousness, which i am sure will not go unheeded. Go & tell them; go & tell them; go & tell them,he repeated thrice. Posted on April 13, 2011
