For some in India, today is Christmas day, and for a few, it's tulsi poojan, which, of course, has a very bogus religious logic. But for us, this is #Manusmritidahandiwas. On this day in 1927, #BabaSaheb and his companions burned Manu smriti during the days of
#mahadsatyagarha. This is one of the main events of the fight of dalit struggle against the evil brahminical system. Let's remember this event proudly.
Upper caste savarana made all effort so that Dr. Ambedkar would not get land for the event. But a Muslim gentleman named

Reminiscences of Babasaheb about Ramai :

" I have myself suffered many years in poverty . Even after returning from overseas with a legal degree , i had the difficulty practicing the law because of caste discrimination . Because of my financial struggles I used to eat just
broken rice and grew weak . One of my own children died of illness . I was too weak too even bury him ... My legal practice slowly improved but then fate struck another blow : my wife rama became grievously ill . The doctor warned that if she had another child ,
she would surely die . To keep her alive , then , we maintained celibacy ...

... She was so frail , I did everything in my power to save her ; we used all sorts of pills and injections . I spared no efforts . Yet she slipped away from this earth she left me '
