Worshipping False Gods
Author: Arun ShouriePublisher: HarperCollins

Pages : 413
Book Description
Over the last couple of decades, B.R. Ambedkar has come to be idolized as no other political leader has. His statue is one of the largest in the Parliament complex. Political parties have reaped rich electoral dividends riding on his name. A decades-old cartoon of him in a textbook rocked Parliament for days recently, causing parties across the political spectrum to run for cover and call for the withdrawal of the 'offending' cartoon. In Worshipping False Gods, Arun Shourie employs his scholarly rigour to cast a critical look at the legend of Ambedkar. With his distinctive eye for detail, Shourie delves into archival records to ask pertinent questions: Did Ambedkar coordinate his opposition to the freedom struggle with the British? How does his approach to social change contrast with that of Mahatma Gandhi's? Did the Constitution spring from him or did it grow as a dynamic living organism? Passionately argued and based on a mountain of facts that it presents, Worshipping False Gods compels us to go behind the myths on which discourse is built in India today.

Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
This Book ‘Dr B.R. Ambedkar : True Leader, not a false God’ is written as a rejoinder to Mr. Arun Shourie’s book ‘Worshipping False Gods’ inwhich Mr. Shourie had made various allegations against Dr Ambedkar. The author has tried to give point-to-point rebuttal of Mr. Shourie insinuation against Dr. Ambedkar.
The book tries to cover Dr. Ambedkar’s work from 1932 to 1953—Poona Pact to his resignation from Nehru's Cabinet; his struggle for political and social empowerment of his people(depressed class) and confrontation with Mahatma Gandhi over issue of reservation for depressed class; his tenure as member of Executive Council of Viceroy and his attitude towards Quit India Movement, and finally his work in the formation of the Constitution as Chairman of Drafting Committee. A separate chapter is also added, which is summary of his seminal work‘Thoughts on Pakistan’ to dispel the wrong notion that he was in support of demand for Pakistan. Dr. Ambedkar’s speech while resigning from the Nehru Cabinet is also added as last chapter to highlight his commitment to Hindu Code Bill,which he termed as biggest reform of Hindu society and his frustration and anguish over his failure to get it passed in Parliament.
