About this ebook

The Story of Reservation goes back to the era when the Nation was still to make its “tryst with destination”, as India’s independence came to epitomise in Jawaharlal Nehru’s words, and to that critical time when it was on the brink of a trifurcation in to three separate Nations: One for the Hindus, Second for the Muslims and Third for Backward Community–before it could get complete sovereignty, for such was the devised formula devised by the British. In reality, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, never intended to achieve the reservations, benefits, concessions etc. for the dalit people. The concept of reservation policy was conceived by the M.K. Gandhi for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. In reality, what was the stand of the Dr. B.R. Ambedkar to achieve for the oppressed classes? The reservation is burning subject matter in India. It is in existence more than eighty years. Compensatory Provisions engrafted under Indian Constitution with an intention to protect oppressed classes. Indian Society suppressed them economically and socially from generations to generations. Oppressed classes are untouchables, such as Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes as designated under the Indian Constitution. Untouchability has been practised more than 3000 years. It has a tragic condition that no one has taken efforts to eradicate the out dated unscientific practises of caste system, on the other hand, majority people of India have faith in the practicing the out dated and unscientific caste system. This book is an efforts to explore Schedule caste and Schedule tribes status and Ambedkar’s contribution in their welfare in India. This book will be a useful reading for all those interested to know about Ambedkar, his work and Philosophy.
