Dammam, Apr 13: The community of architect of the Indian Constitution and the India’s largest Muslim minority community is presently facing very serious situation in India. It is contrary to the core ideology- social justice of the Indian Constitution.

drbrambedkarAs rightly said by Ambedkar that depressed communities cannot come forward unless and until they acquire proper representation is political power. Knowing this fact the minority, Dalits and backward communities must come forward to form a new people’s movement. Indian Social Forum, Karnataka State, Eastern Province wishes that let Ambedkar Jayanthi on 14th April be the preamble for the AHINDA peoples movement.

The rapid increase in violence against Dalits, Dalit students' organizational killings, violence against muslim youths, fake encounters indicates social injustice to depressed communities. The organization killings is being carried out in universities in order to stop rising of another Ambedkar among Dalit students.

The incident of Rohith Vemula is an example. In this situation it is the need of the hour to form a people’s movement among Dalit and Muslim communities to establish a new political power. It is a good sign that a better environment is taking place in Karnataka. It is the responsibility of each Indian to fight for the establishment of social justice and equal rights to every person in India. Indian Social Form wishes that this birth anniversary of Ambedkar be the platform to raise such concern among the Indian citizens.
