Dr.Ambedkar, a visionary , had envisaged certain privileges to the undeveloped &under -privileged class of people in India for their upliftment, while drafting the Indian Constitution.During his lifetime,he couldn't achieve the goal.After his demise,no inspirational leader was available to espouse their cause.In 1960-70,Jagjivanram was the only Dalit leader,and he too,damaged his reputation by uttering something against the majority communitys of India to Lord Wavell. Though he was an intellectual, he had failed in his dream project of capturing The Gaddi . The political turmoil in 1977 had brought him the Dy.PM's gaddi (one among the two.).
The siblings of Dr.Ambedkar & Jagjivanram had utterly failed in their political mission.Jagjivanram's daughter,an ex bureaucrat &the current LS Speaker is a decent politician but sans mass support among the Dalits.Kansiram too didn't do any tangible thing except presenting Mayavati to the UP politics.No Dalit politician of Congress had created a tell-tale name.The next generation politicians like Mayavati &Andi.Raja (spectrum fame) ,though had mandate,they failed in to uplift the Dalits due to their self-agrandishment. Maya was famous for her 'Haati' statue business and Spectrum Raja was for his penchant in amassing un-thinkable quantum of wealth.It was due to Kansiram, unknown people like Maya & Andi.Raja had attained this stage.
The poor Dalit is still poor only.Only the time can answer when their life status could improve.Until then they may have to shout Zindabad to people like Maya, Raja, Thirumavalavan &Krishnasamy.
