DEPRESSED CLASSES NEGLECTED

*On 12th March, 1946, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar made a speech at Madras. He outlined the efforts made by him for the betterment of the Depressed Classes rights from the time of the First-Round-Table-Conference till the present and accused the Congress of thwarting them.

The Congress centred all its energies towards the neglect of the Depressed Classes. It approached the Muslims and devised a scheme to by-pass the Untouchables. Mr. Gandhi agreed to the 14 points of the Muslims on the condition that they would not support them. But thanks to the noble sense of humanity in the Muslims that they rejected this offer and thus did not agree to isolate the Untouchables. 1 zz
