Frontline Conversations'Ambedkar was clear: Hindu Raj would be the biggest calamity for India': Anand TeltumbdePublished on April 9, 2025.
Ahead of the birth anniversary of B.R. Ambedkar, public intellectual and writer Anand Teltumbde speaks to Frontline’s Amey Tirodkar about how Ambedkar's ideas are being invoked and often misappropriated by political parties across the spectrum.

Wisdom Unlimited Podcast by RajaRao PagidipalliAmbedkarism | Simon Commission | A Voice Against All Odds | Dr. Ambedkar’s Global Stand | RajaRao PagidipalliIn this powerful and insightful speech, RajaRao Pagidipalli explores the courageous and strategic role of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar in the Simon Commission. While most Indian leaders rejected the commission, Ambedkar saw it as a rare opportunity to raise the voice of the marginalized on an international stage. This talk highlights how Ambedkarism—the philosophy of justice, equality, and resistance—was not just spoken but lived through Ambedkar’s bold engagement with power structures. A true voice against all odds, this speech reminds us why Babasaheb’s vision remains deeply relevant today.#Ambedkarism #BRambedkar #SimonCommission #DalitHistory #SocialJustice #Ambedkar...

The Sikh Renaissanceਅੰਬੇਦਕਰ ਦਾ ਖ਼ੂੰਨੀ ਸਵਿੰਧਾਨ (The Myth Of Ambedkar's Potential Conversion To Sikhi) (English)An egregious myth-that Dalit leader B.R. Ambedkar was prevented from converting to Sikhi by casteist Sikh leaders-has resurfaced again after historian Tarlochan Singh's unverified claim that he has discovered correspondence from Gandhi dissuading Ambedkar from accepting Sikhi.In this episode, we not only surgically dissect this claim but also expose how Ambedkar was a willing pawn of the Hindutvadi forces when it came to chaining Sikhs to Indian tyranny.

Prem Rao : Stories from a Story Teller"Ambedkar: An Overview" Book ReviewMade up of 10 essays, this book captures the essence of the writings of Bharat Ratna Dr Bhimrao "Babasaheb" Ambedkar, a great son of India. Dr Ambedkar (1891-1956) is the Father of the Indian Constitution and was an eminent jurist, economist, and socio-political reformer.
I think this book is very educative and presents points of view which many may not have come across.
