The newspapers associated with Ambedkar are repositories of vast information on the history of Dalit political activism, which is why it’s a pity that Ambedkar’s role as a journalist and editor has been largely ignored.
A party manifesto published by Scheduled Caste Federation (SCF) in 1951, authored by Ambedkar himself, is another testimony of his categorical cynicism against the RSS. It clearly argued, “The SCF will not have any alliance with any reactionary party such as Hindu Mahasabha or the RSS”.
Ambedkarite peasant radicalism of the 1930s provided multiple avenues for Dalits to forge wide-ranging alliances with non-Dalit masses.
