Inhaltsangabe

Ambedkar addresses the historical injustices faced by minorities, including religious, linguistic, and caste groups, and their vulnerability in a democratic setup dominated by the majority. He emphasizes that political democracy must be accompanied by social and economic democracy to ensure true equality. To safeguard minorities, Ambedkar proposes a constitutional structure that includes provisions such as separate electorates, reserved seats in legislatures, and guarantees for cultural and educational autonomy. He also advocates for state socialism to address economic disparities, suggesting the nationalization of key industries and land reforms to redistribute resources equitably. This dual focus on political representation and economic security underscores his vision of an inclusive democracy.
