Any sensible society would know that reopening old wounds can only disturb the goodwill that exists in the society between various communities. Therefore, these riots were never a part of political discourse at least in the last 30-40 years.

" As the House knows, he was a Minister, a member of our Cabinet, for many years, and I had the privilege of cooperating with him in our governmental work. I had heard of him and, of course, met him previously on various occasions.
(1/n).
(1/n).
But, I had not come into any intimate contact with him. It was at the time of the Constituent Assembly that I got to know him a little better. I invited him to join the Government.

Some people were surprised that I should do so, because, it was thought that his normal activities were of the opposition type rather than of the governmental type.

" When I think of Dr Ambedkar, many things come to my mind, because he was a highly controversial figure. He was not a person of soft speech. But, behind all that was this powerful reaction and an act of rebellion against something that repressed our society for so long.
(1/n).
(1/n).
Fortunately, that rebellion had the support, not perhaps in the exact way he wanted it, but in a large measure, the principle underlying that rebellion had the support of Parliament, and, I believe, every group and party represented here.
(2/n).
(2/n).
Both in our public activities and in our legislative activities, we did our utmost to remove that stigma on Hindu society.

" Dr Ambedkar, as every Member of this House knows, played a very important part in the making of the Constitution of India, subsequently in the Legislative part of the Constituent Assembly and later in the Provisional Parliament.
(1/n).
(1/n).
After that, he was not a Member of Parliament for some time. Then, he came back to the Rajya Sabha of which he was a sitting Member.
(2/n).
(2/n).
He is often spoken of as one of the architects of our Constitution. There is no doubt that no one took greater care and trouble over Constitution making than Dr Ambedkar.
