He further went on to quote PM Modi and said, “If it wasn’t for Baba Saheb’s struggle, PM Modi, Former President Kovind and President Droupadi Murmu would not hold the posts they are in today.”

The book, compiled by Bluekraft Digital Foundation, delves deeply into Dr. Ambedkar’s life, works, and achievements while drawing parallels with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s policies and reforms. It includes a foreword by Rajya Sabha MP Ilaiyaraaja (also lyricist and music composer), and the twelve chapters focus on infrastructure, education, socioeconomic mobility, gender equality, and self-reliance.

The book is an important addition to the ongoing research on Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar’s ideas and works, and it will make an important contribution to the country’s policy landscape. It is a watershed moment in India’s history, examining how the vision of individuals such as Dr. Ambedkar is finally coming to fruition under the visionary and dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Modi.
