How did Dr.Ambedkar got elected to the Constituent Assembly?


By Waman Meshram, National President, Bharat Mukti Morcha

Then how did, in spite of strong opposition from Congress Dr.Ambedkar got elected to the Constituent Assembly?

From 1916 to 1942 Dr. Ambedkar had united all the untouchables in India. Meaning they were creating one nation-wide agitation. As a result of this on 18, 19, 20 July 1942 Scheduled Caste Federation (SCF) organized its national conference in Nagpur, Maharastra. For this national conference 75,000 activists attended. Out of this were 50,000 men and 25,000 women. In this conference Dr. Ambedkar delivered a historic speech. He said “Our struggle is not for wealth and power but it is for self respect and freedom.” Two categories of people took note of this nationwide struggle. (a) British (b) Gandhi and his Congress

(a)  After observing Ambedkar’s nationwide agitation and its strength British government rattled, they made Ambedkar labour minister with three additional charges.
(1)  Labour
(2)  Energy (Electricity)
(3)  Irrigation (water resources)
(4)  P.W.D (Public Works Department)

British took note of Dr.Ambedkar’s nationwide agitation and made Ambedkar a minister with not one, two and three portfolios but gave his four ministries. Today it is miserable plight of those who take the name of Babasaheb as they ‘adjust’ for one seat. This is because to believe Babasaheb is different from to take his name in jaijaikar. Because those who believe in Babasaheb they risk lives to complete the task of Babasaheb’s incomplete task. They do not make any compromises on this. And those who simply utter the name of Babasaheb meaning they indulge in jayjaykar only they do not have any need to do any work of Babasaheb. Because they are worshippers. Babasaheb wanted more people who are practical implementers but the uncountable crop is of the worshippers. Those Babasaheb told to become heavy weights in the balance they have become adjustable for one-two seats. Those Babasaheb told to become ruling community they are trying to make enemy ruling community. The Congress that has not left a single seat for Dr.Ambedkar to get elected to the Constituent Assembly, the same Congress is being made ruling party. Why are those indulging in the jaijaykar of Ambedkar had to ask for one and two seats with Congress and Rashtrawadi Congress? The reason is Poona Pact. And if some other seat is allocated as deal from Congress and NCP then why the responsibility to get the candidate elected given to them? The reason is Poona Pact. Today Poona Pact is applicable to SC and ST directly and indirectly it is applicable to OBC and converted mulnivasis. This means today Poona Pact is applicable for all the non-brahmins. That’s why if the symptom has to be destroyed then its cause has to be destroyed. Then and only then we will get self-respect and freedom. That’s why Rastraya Mulnivasi Sangh is creating nationwide agitation. In this all the mulnivasi brothers and sisters must participate.

(b)  Secondly, Dr. Ambedkar’s nationwide agitation was taken not of by Gandhi and his Congress. On 9th August 1942 they gave slogan of ‘Quit India’, ‘Chale Jao”, “Bharat Chodo”, Chalte Vha” to British. Together Gandhi ordered “do or die” to people of India. How come Gandhi who preached violence all his life had to incite people for violence? Why Mahatma had to abandon his ideal of non-violence. The reason is the nationwide independent agitation for self-respect. The man who preached non-violence referred as ‘Man of Principles’ Gandhi was compelled to issue order of violence. No one pays attention to this historic turning point. Gandhi – the man who always compromised with British, why has to resort to ‘do or die’ dictate? Why such compulsion descended upon him? Because if British stays longer in India then Dr.Ambedkar’s agitation will spread. Now he has only the support of SC, tomorrow ST will support him, they after tomorrow OBC, then Criminal tribes, then converted mulnivasis, and last even women will support him. Meaning if SC, ST, OBC, Ex CT, converted mulnivasis and women support Dr. Ambedkar. Then he will come on the most important post of the nation, the post of Prime Minister and two political parties will come into existence.

1.    Political Party of the Eurassian brahmin – Congress party – (brahmin Sabha)
2.    Political Party of the Mulnivasis – RPI – Then Congress will be compelled to ask for one or two seats with RPI.
To avoid this from occurring Gandhi used his last weapon ‘do or die’, Actually Gandhi was never non-violent. One British historian observed that ‘Gandhi was most violent person.’

In 1992 when he was a labour minister Ambedkar demanded with British 13% representation to SC. But British gave only 8.33% reservation. Then 12% and while writing constitution of India he made the provision of 15% reservation. Second most important effect of 1942 national conference meaning nationwide agitation was that Dr. Ambedkar emerged as true and genuine leader of the untouchables and he got the opportunity to write Constitution of India. He made best out of that opportunity. We are looking at the answer to the question as to how Ambedkar got elected to the Constituent Assembly in spite of strong opposition from Gandhi, Congress and their Chelas.

Vishwaratna, mahamanav, Babasaheb Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar struggled from 1916 to 1942 for 26 years and created awareness amongst untouchables and organized them, and on July 18, 19 and 20 in 1942 organized national conference of the untouchables. In this 75,000 activists were present: 50,000 men and 25,000 women. 1,500 Jatis amongst untouchables were present. Dr. Ambedkar accomplished most difficult task of awakening all these jatis and organizing them. In this national conference North India’s fair complexion  untouchables, central India’s wheatish complexion and South India’s dark complexioned untouchables were present. In short one nationwide agitation were given rise to. Untouchables were made the foundation of this nationwide agitation.

At a time when Congress and Gandhi did not leave a single seat vacant for the Ambedkar to get elected at that time people of Bengal urged Dr.Ambedkar to contest the Constituent Assembly elections from Bengal.   Muslim League person who was supposed to get elected left his place for Babasaheb Ambedkar to contest and get elected. People of Namoshudra jati voted for Babasaheb and Mahapran Jogendranath Mandal campaigned for Babasaheb. This is how Basaheb got elected to the Constituent Assembly by stepping and crushing the strong opposition from Gandhi and Congress. This was possible for Babasaheb due to 26 years of struggle to create nationwide, countrywide agitation across India. Today we are doomed because this agitation of ours has been crushed by Congress, Gandhi and their agents. Gandhi and his Congress could not tolerate that Dr.Babasaheb got elected to the Constituent Assembly. That’s Nehru demarcated the four districts -  (1) Jassor (2) Khulna (3) Borishal and (4) Faridpur - that elected Babasaheb into Pakistan. Even today when we look at the map these four districts that got Babasahed elected are in Pakistan. Pandit Nehru exploded his revengeful vengeance on these four Districts. Their only fault is that they elected Babasheb – liberator of Humanity on Constituent Assembly. The constituency which elected Babasaheb all the four districts of this constituency is thrown demarked in Pakistan by Nehru. By Which Nehru? That Nehru whom we call Pandit, that Nehru whom we call great socialist, that Nehru whom we call great secularist, that Nehru whom we call architect of modern India. Not only this, that Nehru to whom we call ‘Baccho ke Chacha’. This Nehru with the sense of vengeance demarcated all the four districts in Pakistan.

Conditions of India-Pakistan partition were as below:-

In that region hindus are above 51%, that region will be retained as part of India and that region in which muslims are more than 51% that region will be given as part of Pakistan. The four districts - (1) Jassor (2) Khulna (3) Borishal and (4) Faridpur - that elected Babasaheb Ambedkar to the Assembly against the wishes of Gandhi and Congress had population of 71% Hindus. Actually all these four districts should have been retained in India but Jawaharlal Nehru as a punishment gave all these four districts to Pakistan.

The people of four districts that voted for Babasaheb Ambedkar and got him elected to the Constituent Assembly, Eurasian Brahmins refer them today as ‘Bangaldeshi intruders’ and people of Bangladesh also does support them. Their plight is like being caught between the ‘devil and deep blue sea’. They were displaced from Bangladesh; Indian government chases them away as intruders. While those displaced from West Pakistan Indian government is resettling them in India. Example Advani, Manmohan Singh, all sindhi people etc. In short those displaced from East are termed as intruders and those displaced from west are patriots, meaning those displaced from west are awarded settlement in India. This is double standard in assessment. This is double standard state policy.

Most important is that all the four districts that elected Dr.Ambedkar in constituent Assembly were demarcated in Pakistan. As a result Dr.Ambedkar became a member of Pakistan Aseembly. His membership of Indian Constituent Assembly got cancelled. Babasaheb Ambdkar then went to London and me Churchill. But it was of no use. Then Babasaheb took the public stand that he will not accept the Constitution. In 1946 Lord Wavell in his radio address declared “Now we will not stay in India for long but we before we leave people of India must together form the Constitution of India. Power will be shared amongst three. (1) Savarna (2) Untouchables (3) Muslims

That that time there were three camps in India:
(1)  Savarna Camp whose leader was Gandhi
(2)  Untouchable camp whose leader was Dr.Ambedkar
(3)  Muslim Camp whose leader was Barrister Jinnah

In the meanwhile Dr. Ambedkar had boycotted Constituent Assembly and while boycotting had said, “We will recognize the Constitution only if we are granted Constitutional safeguards.” On the other side Nehru was in a hurry to take over as Prime Minister. British had put a condition that all the above three together must write constitution and Dr. Ambedkar had boycotted the process of Constitution formation. Congress was faced with major problem. What is to be done? Then Gandhi suggested to Nehru.

Gandhi   :  Nehru, What do Dr.Ambedkar want?
Nehru     :  He wants Constitutional safeguards to his own people.
Gandhi   :  Who will be Prime Minister?
Nehru     :  I will be the Prime Minister.
Gandhi   :  Who will be implementing the Constitution?
Nehru     : I will be implementing the Constitution.
Gandhi   : So what you do is give responsibility to write Constitution to Dr.Ambedkar. Let him write whatever he wants. Whether to implement that or not that you see.

Then Nehru’s eyes began sparkling. He was happy. This moment he understood true Gandhi. Immediately Nehru compelled Dr.Jayakar in Mumbai to resign and in his place got Dr.Ambedkar elected, and after electing also made him the chairman of the drafting committee.

          Two committees were formed.

(1)  Drafting committee – Chairman – Dr. Ambedkar
Task: To write articles of Constitution

(2)  Constitution Committee – Chairman – Dr. Rajendra Prasad
Task: To approve the written articles of the constitution

On getting elected as the chairman of the Drafting committee Dr. Ambedkar expressed surprised and said “I am surprised to be appointed as a chairman of Drafting Committee”. This means that before appointing him as a chairman of the drafting committee Gandhi-Congress did not discuss, thought out, and consulted with Dr.Ambedkar. “You are asking for the safeguards for your people, then come you be the chairman of the drafting committee and include as much safeguards as you want.” This was a move to put Dr.Ambedkar in difficult situation. But what Gandhi and Congress knew that Dr.Ambedkar was far smarter and already knew of their plot. Actually Dr.Ambedkar wanted exactly this. That’s why knowingly he had boycotted the process of Constitution formation. In short Dr.Ambedkar had made this move to get what he wanted and he had succeeded in it. How Dr.Ambedkar was made the Chairman of the drafting committee by the same Gandhi – Congress and their agents when they worked hard not leave a single seat for him to get elected to the constituent assembly there by closing doors and windows of Constituent Assembly to him? This was impossible. Then how did this became possible? Pandit Jawaharlal was in a hurry to take over as Prime Minister. British were not ready to leave the country till all sections of Indian society collaborate with the process of constitution formation. Dr.Ambedkar was not going to recognize the Constitution of India till constitutional safeguards are guaranteed. Because of this pressure Gandhi and Congress appointed Dr.Ambedkar as the Chairman of the drafting committee. It was just a political decision. It was just a political adjustment. This was a part of their political diplomacy. It was their political game. This was their political decision and it was meant to solve their problem. Dr. Ambedkar was scholar in law, he was Bar-at-law, he was intellectual and that’s why Gandhi and Congress appointed him as the Chairman of the Drafting Committee; is the belief of the worshippers of Ambedkar. This is not true. Dr. Ambedkar was certainly a scholar, he was certainly an expert at law, and he was certainly Barrister-at-law. There is no iota of doubt about this. But Gandhi and Congress appointed Ambedkar as the Chairman of the drafting committee in order to get the support of his community to the Constitution. If they had appointed him the Chairman of the drafting committee based on his merits then Congress and their brahmin-bania Medias would have carried on the propaganda top of their voice. But you cannot read this news in single newspapers of that time. It was not announced on Radio or on T.V. In this way Dr.Ambedkar became the Chairman of the drafting committee.

Committee consisting of seven members was appointed:
(1)  Chairman – Dr. B. R. Ambedkar
(2)  Member    -  Alladi Krishnaswamy
(3)  Member    -   N. Gopalswami Ayyangar
(4)  Member    -   K. M. Munshi
(5)  Member   -    Sayyad Mohamad Sadullah
(6)  Member   -    B. L. Mittar
(7)  Member   -    D.P.Khaitan

Constitutional Assembly had appointed seven members on the drafting committee. Out that one person resigned from the Constituent assembly and his place was taken by another person. One person died and his place remained vacant. One let for far away America and his place was not filled again. Another member of the Assembly got busy in State politics and that much vacuum got generated. Two people used to be far away from Delhi and they were not enjoying good health. Finally it fell upon Ambedkar to complete the task of Constitution writing and completed it efficiently.

Dr. Ambedkar completed the entire Constitution in 2 years 11 months and 17 days. Constitution had 395 articles and 8 Schedules. Now there are 12 Schedules. House number of Rashrapita Jyotiba Phule’s residence at Ganjapeth, Pune is 395. To honor his guru, meaning to run the affairs of the nations from the framework of Phule’s house Indian constitution has 395 Articles. This is called gurushishya. One who completes incomplete task of his guru is real Shishya. “I am the only true practitioner of Phule” Ambedkar used to tell with self-pride. Eurassian Brahmins wrote manusmriti and through it took away all the rights of mulnivasis. All those rights of mulnivasis that were taken away by manusmriti Dr. Ambedkar gave back all those human rights back to them thorough Constitution of India.

  2. Great articles.. It clear my doubt that "how brahman, congress, gandhi, nehru, sardar vallabhbhai patel etc. had let BABASAHEB to write constitution in those conditions." I learn many new things through this article.

  4. you said congress gandhis not allowed him get elected for constituent assemble and again you said theymade him chairman of drafting committee, this is quite contradiction, if it is just to get support of SC's then they can had made him chairman to other committees. Your argument here is contradictory

    1. Nothing contradictory Sir. Please read the article once again very carefully and without prejedice. Congress and Gandhi tried their level best to stop Dr. Ambedkar's entry in the Constituent Assembly. But their ill efforts miserably failed since Bengal helped Dr. Ambedkar to be a part of the Constituent Assembly. One of my wife's predecessors (Late Dwarika Nath Baruri of Faridpur District of erstwhile East Bengal, now Bangladesh) cast his vote in favour of Dr. Ambedkar. So, somehow I know the entire episode, more or less.

  5. Indian History will never mention these facts. But, from this article, I could learn that doing injustice to the deserving leaders/persons (like Dr. BR Ambedkar, Subhash Chandra Bose, Sardar Ballavbhai Patel and others) is a century-old tradition of Indian National Congress party.

  6. Sir Benegal Narsing Rau was appinted as the constitutional advisor.He later became First Indian Judge in International Court of Justice in 1950.



    Other Committee members:

    B L Mitter resigned from the committee. He was replaced by Madhav Rao (Legal Advisor of Maharaja of Vadodara).

    D P Khaitan passed away and was replaced by T T Krishnamachari.

  7. THIS ARTICLE IS A PACK OF LIES.RIGHTLY HAS IT BEEN SAID THAT LITTLE KNOWLEDGE IS A DANGEROUS THING.HOWEVER BELIEVING THAT GREAT BABASAHEB GAVE US FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND EXPRESSION THROUGH THE CONSTITUTION I WOULD LIKE TO GO TO THE EXTENT OF SAYING THAT WRITER OF THE ARTICLE HAS PROVED THAT BIASED KNOWLEDGE AND ABSURD REASONING IS A POISONOUS THING WHICH INFESTS OUR MIND WITH IRRATIONAL LINKS AND FOREVER DEGRADES OUR RATIONAL TEMPERAMENT .
    THIS IS HOW THIS ARTICLE GETS EXPOSED.
    1- THE WRITER SAYS THAT NEHRU DELIBERATELY DEMARCATED BENGAL BORDER TO GET RID OF AMBEDKAR .PERHAPS WRITER OF THE ARTICLE IS UNAWARE OF THE FACT THAT IT WAS NOT NEHRU BUT SIR CYRIL RADCLIFFE WHO DEMARCATED THE INDO-PAK BORDER.

    2- WRITER OF THE ARTICLE -"His membership of Indian Constituent Assembly got cancelled. Babasaheb Ambdkar then went to London and me Churchill. But it was of no use."
    THROUGH THIS STATEMENT THE WRITER HAS MADE A FOOL OUT OF HIMSELF. BABASAHEB MET WINSTON CHURCHILL BEFORE GETTING ELECTED TO THE CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY THROUGH BENGAL SEAT.

    3- DO OR DIE - KARO YA MARO . IT MEANT THAT WE WOULD REGISTER OUR DISSENT OR WOULD DIE IN THE ATTEMPT.IT WAS NOT KARO YA MAARO. FURTHER THE REVOLUTION TOOK A VIOLENT TURN ONLY IN SOME AREAS. FURTHER IT IS TO BE SUPPLEMENTED BY THE FACT THAT GANDHI AND OTHER MAJOR LEADERS WERE ARRESTED ON 8 AUGUST 1942 LEAVING A LEADERSHIP VACUUM.

    4- "Dr.Ambedkar’s agitation will spread. Now he has only the support of SC, tomorrow ST will support him, they after tomorrow OBC, then Criminal tribes, then converted mulnivasis, and last even women will support him. Meaning if SC, ST, OBC, Ex CT, converted mulnivasis and women support Dr. Ambedkar. Then he will come on the most important post of the nation, the post of Prime Minister and two political parties will come into existence."- ONE OF THE MOST ABSURD ARGUMENT I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED IN MY LIFE. YES DR. AMBEDKAR WAS A GREAT LEADER AND HAD SUPPORT AMONG DALITS AND OTHER LOWER CASTES BUT TO ASSERT THAT HE WOULD HAVE HAD BECOME THE PRIME MINISTER SHOWS THAT WRITER LACKS FAIR KNOWLEDGE OF THE HISTORY. BRITISHERS NEVER GAVE UNIVERSAL ADULT FRANCHISE.VOTING RIGHT WAS GIVEN ON THE BASIS OF PROPERTY TAX AND EDUCATION .FURTHER AMBEDKAR BECOMING PRIME MINISTER OF WHICH NATION. MANY OF THE PRINCELY STATES WERE AGAINST JOINING THE INDIAN FEDERATION.IT WAS SARDAR PATEL WHO BROUGHT ABOUT THE POLITICAL UNIFICATION OF INDIA. IN FACT IN THE HYDERABAD PROVINCE SC'S WERE AGAINST JOINING THE INDIAN FEDERATION. THE WRITER'S STATEMENT IS A BIASED EXAGGERATION.

    5- EURASIAN BRAHMINS - WITH ALL DUE RESPECT IT IS THE CHEAPEST ASSERTION OF HIGHEST ORDER.I SUPPOSE YOU ARE DRAWING IT FROM ARYAN THEORY , WHICH HASN'T BEEN PROVEN YET.EVEN BABASAHEB TREADED CAUTIOUSLY IN MAKING SUCH ARGUMENTS.

    6- BABASAHEB WAS NEVER APPOINTED AS CHAIRMAN OF THE DRAFTING COMMITTEE. HE WAS APPOINTED AS THE LAW MINISTER IN NEHRU'S CABINET. IN THAT CAPACITY HE WAS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE DRAFTING COMMITTEE.

    7- gurushishya-- THE MOST LUDICROUS STATEMENT OF THIS SILLY ARTICLE. CONSTITUTION IS FOR THE NATION . BABASAHEB WAS INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS BUSINESS . WHY WOULD HE USE A CONSTITUTION TO PAY TRIBUTE TO PHULE. CONSTITUTION WAS NOT SOME PRIVATE LEGACY BUT A PROMISSORY NOTE TO WHICH EVERY INDIAN WAS TO FALL HEIR TO. THE GREAT BABASAHEB COULD NEVER HAVE DONE SUCH THING . 395 IS A COINCIDENCE BEING CAPITALISED UPON BY CHEAP CONSTRUCTIONS.

    AS I SAID THIS ARTICLE IS A PACK OF LIES AND SHOULD BE KICKED AWAY WITH. I AM CERTAIN THAT AFTER GOING THROUGH MY COMMENT THE WRITER OF THE ARTICLE WOULD REMOVE IT. I CALL IT THE HUBRIS OF THE DEFEATED. BUT YOU CAN'T BASE REVOLUTIONS ON LIES.
    JAI BHEEM.

    1. A good rebuttal. But you havn't rebutted on the conspiracy theory of congress leaders. Of course the writer sees to have been carried more by emotions than facts.He may , you are right, need to make some corrections.

  9. Nice articles ,it is shown that how congress and manuwadi policy harmful for backwards and how babasaheb succeeded to his aim for uplift the backwards

  10. 1. Who gave him the name "Ambedkar", was he a Brahmin ?
    2. Did Ambedkar believe, or has written anywhere or mentioned in any of his speech that the Brahmins came from Eurasia ?
    3. Isn't "Guru-Shishya parampara" a Brahmanical tradition, following which Ambedkar used 395 Articles in the constitution of India ?

    Read a little before you post such foolish conspiracy theories.

  11. Why is the author of the above article Mr Waman Meshram trying to malign and vilify the Congress party, when we all know that the RSS-BJP Parivar is trying to destroy India? When India got independence in 1947, only 10% of our population was literate. The Congress party, led by Nehru, had no choice but to give govt jobs to literate persons, because it needed literate manpower to run the country. Naturally, India's upper-castes got most of the jobs (except menial jobs, which were given to illiterate lower-castes, because upper-castes hated doing menial jobs). Thus, upper-castes manipulated everyghing to ensure that their domination would remain so. Why blame Nehru or his family? The Congress party leaders had to face huge pressures from the upper-castes RSS Parivar, yet the party took hard decisions to improve the social conditions of the underprivileged people of India, via the policies of Nationalization, Reservation and Abolition of Princes' Privy Purses. That is why the Indira Gandhi and her son Rajiv were murdered by the Parivar (with the help of Khalistani Sikhs and LTTE). BLAME THE PARIVAR. WHY BLAME THE CONGRESS?

  12. The rebuttal is fake and prejudiced. These people dont know how the baba saheb was exploited and maligned by the brahminical forces at numerous time and situation. Many stories about baba saheb ambedkar has been erased out from the independence history. Since last 70 years of independence, how much lies and exploitations have been taken and applied by the forward cast against the dalit, ST, muslim and other weaker sections , are countless. See the persent horrible situation of dalit and ST, who is responsible for them. Obviously it is forward cast and brahminical society.

    Whatever Meshram has narrarted u can't find in the archives of independence history because it alla had been lost, deliberately, but mentioned by different people in their now scattered articles.

    Great effort meshram
