VIEWS OF DR.AMBEDKAR

           Dr.Ambedkar -His Writings and Speeches


Friends , from today onwards i will be providing some excerpts from the book ' Dr. Babasaheb  Ambedkar -His Writings and Speeches '.


                      ON HERO AND LEADERS

"Show our critics a great man", he said " and they begin to what they call 'account for him ';not to worship him but take the dimensions of him." Hero worship is certainly not dead in India. Hero worship is demoralising for the devotee and dangerous to the country. I welcome the criticism in so far as it conveys a caution that you must know that your man is really great before you start worshipping him . For in these days, with the press in hand ,it is easy to manufacture great men.
                  Even Carylyle who defended the worship of great men warned his readers how : "Multitudes of men have figured in history as great men who were false and selfish."He regretted deeply that " the world's sages (of homage) are pocketed (by these so-called great men) , the world's work is not done. Heroes have gone out ; quacks have come in."


This shows his clarity about Indian people thinking and the way they trust someone (easily). This has always been advantage to political parties to seduce people and gain votes. This all started from Mahatma Gandhi (Dr.Ambedkar refused to call him "mahatma") .Instead of following his thoughts and way of life people began to worship Gandhiji. Then comes the famous "INDIRA IS INDIA" slogan , And now comes the present Prime Minister . The cause behind all this is dependency on others ( especially media ) for information and trusting everything they say and show repeatedly so as to form that visionary and godly image of the person they want to project. As an educated and responsible citizen we ourselves have to educate ourselves , should form our own opinion not depending on what others want to engrave on our mind. Unless and until the citizens of a country have their unbiased opinions independent of caste ,religion, race,ideology ,etc. the scammers will continue to rule on your mind and may be the country also.

#Politics : A Sandwich Of CAA,2019 Between Article 14 And Basic Structure Doctrine

Recently many people who were unaware of Article 14 of the Indian Constitution, came to know about it through the debates across media on the CAA and whether it is violating Article 14 or not. So here I am, eager to share some information about Article 14 and the basic structure of the Indian Constitution along with one famous judgement of the Supreme Court on the Fundamental Rights. Fundamental Rights along with the Directive Principles Of State Policy were adopted by the constitution makers to safeguard the individual liberty and to ensure political, social and economic justice to every member of the society respectively. Fundamental Rights are not absolute and they have limitations under certain circumstances like an Emergency but the individual /legal entity /company etc. can challenge the state in court under ordinary circumstances so that the subservient legislature should not serve as a handmaid to the executive in committing inroads upon the individual liberty. The Di...
