He didn’t know Sanskrit, yet somehow earned a PhD in Vedic outrage. Ambedkar was proving that you can critique an entire civilization without reading its original texts.

(0/n)

Dr. Ambedkar’s entire understanding of Hinduism and Buddhism came not from authentic Sanskrit and Pali sources, but from colonial translators and Christian missionaries.

Hence, almost his entire understanding and criticism of Hindu religion falls flat on it's face. His ideology is just a product of British - Christian colonialism. Presently, Missionaries along with the Leftists are using Ambedkarism as a tool to divide the Hindu society and destroy Bharatiya Civilisation. (1/n):

Sources of Ambedkar’s textual knowledge.

Ambedkar almost never worked directly from Sanskrit or Pali manuscripts. In his own prefaces he thanks or cites:

•G. Bühler’s The Laws of Manu (Oxford, 1886)
•Max Müller’s Sacred Books of the East series
•T. W. Rhys Davids and other members of the Pāli Text Society
•Monier-Williams, P. V. Kane, and Colebrooke

These Indologists were trained in the British Orientalist tradition; their editions were produced to serve colonial legal and missionary purposes.
