Ambedkar and His National Perspective”, where journalists shared their views
and ideas. The common observation of the journalists was that some
organisations are deliberately distorting Dr. Ambedkar’s views of nation, to suit
their personal agenda and to avoid this wrong perception, everyone should read
the life Dr. Ambedkar’s life and his books.

points of Dr. Ambedkar’s life should be noted by everyone to understand his
national perspective. He added that three key points of Ambedkar’s life were how
he exposed British rule in India with several facts and figures in 1931, his
thoughts on Pakistan book written in 1941, and his conversion to Buddism in
1956.
