Babasaheb was a Buddhist throughout his life and the communities who converted with him have progressed significantly, while your Bhangi community is dying in gutters every day. Enjoy your Linduism Bhangi Raju Valmiki
सनातन के विराट ��ीपल वृक्ष से कोई पत्ता टूटकर कितने दिन हरा रह सकता है। 14 अक्टूबर 1956 को भीमराव अंबेडकर ने नागपुर में हिंदू धर्म त्यागकर बौद्ध धर्म अपनाया और 6 दिसंबर 1956 को उनका निधन हो गया। इस प्रकार, वे मात्र 53 दिन तक जीवित रहे। #बाबासाहब_परिनिर्वाण_दिवस

It's truly fascinating to see people who have dismantled every institution Babasaheb created from SCF to RPI to BSI to SSD to PES suddenly acts in such a way as they care so much about Babasaheb's movement.

6)The conversion in Mumbai, despite the sorrow of losing their leader, became a triumph of hope. As the pyre burned, the move to Buddhism symbolized Babasaheb’s vision coming alive, and Deekshabhoomi in Nagpur is a pilgrimage where many follow his path to justice and equality.

5)In a poignant moment, Dadasaheb Gaikwad, Babasaheb’s close associate, addressed the masses: “Babasaheb wished to guide you to Buddhism, but today he lies on the pyre. Let us honor his wish and take Dhamma Diksha.” His words inspired 1.3 million people to embrace Buddhism.
