Ambedkar’s Likely Views on India Today

Hindu Nationalism (RSS/BJP):
 He would strongly oppose Hindutva ideology.
 Ambedkar viewed Hinduism’s caste structure as oppressive and un-reformable (“The Hindu social order must be destroyed if democracy is to survive”). He would see Hindutva as a regression to “Brahminical tyranny.”

Caste Discrimination and Dalit Movements:
 He’d be dismayed by the persistence of caste violence and “caste in new forms.”
 He would support modern Ambedkarite, Bahujan, and Dalit assertion movements (e.g., Bhim Army, Ravidassia activism, Navayana Buddhist communities), emphasizing education and organization over violent protest.

Economic Justice:
 Ambedkar believed in state socialism for key industries and land redistribution.
He’d support policies Scandinavian-style welfare democracy or “Dalit socialism” — state-led equality rather than laissez-faire capitalism.

Education and Affirmative Action:
 He would defend reservation policies and demand expansion into private education and employment, seeing education as the great liberator.

Climate and Environment:
 He’d support climate justice framed through social justice — protecting the poor and marginalized from ecological harm.
