Annihilation of Caste is a speech prepared by B. R. Ambedkar in 1936 but never delivered. It was written for the 1936 Lahore conference of a group of liberal Hindu caste-reformers. Ambedkar has adopted a very firm position and attempted to make topics such as Caste, Religion, and Human Conduct very objective. Several of the given thoughts and facts are also fairly out of date at this time. Despite this, it is written with great conviction.

Autorenporträt
Bhimrao Ambedkar (1891-1956) Founding Father, modern India MA 1915, PhD 1927 LLD 1952 (hon.) Ambedkar was a leader in the struggle for Indian independence, the architect of the new nation's constitution, and the champion of civil rights for the 60 million members of the "untouchable" caste, to which he belonged. He spoke and wrote ceaselessly on behalf of "untouchables," but his passion for justice was broad: in 1950 he resigned from his position as the country's first minister of law when Nehru's cabinet refused to pass the Women's Rights Bill. Ambedkar was committed to maintaining his independence, and many of the positions he staked out in a long and complex relationship with Gandhi-on the future of Hinduism, for example?remain central to debate within Indian society.
