Do you know?

Unlike popularly believed by many RW Hindus that amby was anti-Islam, Amby not only wanted to convert to Islam rejecting Buddhism he was also a partner in crime with Jinnah against Hindus.

THREAD 🧵 SOME LESSER KNOWN FACTS ABOUT AMBEDKAR ON HIS BIRTHDAY.

Amby in His “Bahiskrit Bharat” exhorted his community under the bold heading “If you have to convert, become Musalman”.

He asked his community to convert to islam after rejecting the futility of becoming Buddhist and arya samajist.

Veer Savarkar, in his kesari clearly wrote “Amby didn’t do us any favor by not converting to Islam or Christianity” just like what many RW Hindus think today.

Savarkar mentions how Amby used to sing the sweetness of Islam and considered it the best religion.

Amby insisted that he was drawn to Buddhist philosophy from childhood after reading a book Buddha vichara.

Savarkar ji had called out Amby’s bluff on Buddhism & asked an apt question- if amby was so fond of Buddhism from his childhood how did he ask his followers to embrace islam or Christianity which considered Buddha as Infidel & heathen?

Thus proving him as a liar.

According to Savarkar ji, It wasnt like Amby didn’t convert to Buddhism instead of islam or Christianity just because he had some love for Hindus. He was a Dharma Bhrast as per Savarkar ji.

It was simply because he couldn’t manage to do it or else he would.

Do you What was the consequence of Ambedkar’s love for Islam?

Many Mahars (ambys community) did convert to Islam by hearing speeches of Ambedkar.

This is witnessed by A chambhar leader, P.N Rajbhoj who accused Amby of misdirecting his followers in Bombay chronicle.

When the entire country was protesting against British for the independence of Bharat, Ambedkar had fully supported British going against the congress government.

Here’s my previous thread on the details of his open support to British and opposing Indian Independence.

Anyway, finally congress formed its government & was fighting against British for independence.

In 1939 when British government wasn’t giving any proper direction regarding independence, congress resigned in protest.

Of course Md. Ali Jinnah was celebrating it as deliverance day for the resignation of congress.
Guess who else was celebrating with Jinnah being his partner in crime?

Our so called greatest Freedom fighter Amby ji.

At one point even some sections of Muslims were found to be opposing “Deliverance Day” So the anti-Hindu protest ended up being a partner-in-crime protest by only Jinnah & Amby.

The only reason Amby didn’t convert to Islam and chose Buddhism, as per Savarkar, was only for personal ambition - if he could amass a huge number of neo Buddhists, he could establish an independent Buddhist state which wasnt possible by converting to islam.
