Ambedkar came in ready to talk justice and rights for Dalits, and Gandhi kinda brushed him off like โI got this.โ Then in 1932, things got messyโAmbedkar wanted separate votes for Dalits so they could actually have a voice, but Gandhi was like โnah fam, thatโs gonna split usโ and started a dramatic fast. Whole country panicked. Pressure was real. Ambedkar had to compromise, but he def wasnโt vibinโ with it.
Did Gandhi hate him tho?
Not โhateโ hate, but they had major beef. Gandhi was like โfix caste from inside,โ Ambedkar was like โnah bro, torch the whole system.โ Gandhi saw caste as a problem to smooth over, Ambedkar saw it as a straight-up injustice that needed wrecking. Gandhi was the face of the freedom struggle, but Ambedkar was out here fighting for actual equality, not just Independenceโข๏ธ.
