SAYE MAI DHOOP - BY DUSHYANT KUMAR

Ho gayi hai peer parvat si pighlni chahiye,
Iss himalaya sai koi ganga nikalni chahiye.
Aaj yai dewar, pardo ki tarah hilne lagi, 
Shart lekin thi ki yai buniyad hilni chahiye. 
Har sadak pr, Har gali main, Har nagar, Har gaon main, 
Hath lehrate hue har lash chalni chahiye. 
Sirf hangame khade karna mare maksad nahi, 
Marei kosis hai ki surat badalni chahiye.

It is a speech prepared by Dr. Ambedkar which laterally taken the shape of a book. Dr. Ambedkar in his speech criticise hindu society on caste discrimination and Hindu bigotary nature, which at that time shaken the root of hindu religion, and afraid of that so called hindu protector can't laid them to deliver him. Besides president of that time annual conference meeting of Jat-Pat-todal Mandal, afraid of there writing skill they choose simple path to cancel the conference. 
Dr. Ambedkar always straight forward and furious in his writing. His writing always shows the path of enlightment to dalit.

15th August 1947, At the stroke of midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom.. These are golden words of Jawahar Lal Nehru. India is in the journey of their own destiny but there are many challenges in his path. And one of them was marginalise section of society the Dalit's, whose condition at that time raised many question. Is they got freedom in real sense? Is atrocities against them is stopped ? There are lots of questions at that time which need to be answered.
Many of them get their answers in form of constitution, which is adopted by India after independence in which their is provisions of equality for all. But equality in real sense is far away from reality.
From their started the journey of struggle of dalit leaders. After Independence dalit leaders had tried much to fight for equality and justice, in them one of the largest leader is Kanshiram.

Bharat Ratna Dr. B. R. Ambedkar

Dalit a word meaning '' downtrodden people of a society''. From many centuries they are facing atrocities and cruelty of society. They are forced to live with minimal resources.
Dalit is  considered as untouchable and people in so called higher varna system is not even touch them to maintain their purity. This is only one example from which we understand about the situation of dalit in early India.
But, time changes and with the passage of time many Dalit leaders tried to fight against this Hindu orthodox society. They have sowed the seeds and with their struggle and hard work, Now it taken the shape of giant tree. Here, we are specifically talking about the founding father of constitution Bharat Ratna Babasaheb Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar.
Dr. B. R. Ambedkar a renowned personality, an Econimist, Barrister, Political analyst,Social thinker, Pioneer of Social and Gender equality always fight for marginalised section of society like dalits, womens etc. Earlier people know him for his contribution in draft of constitution. But, as time passes progressive people called him as founding father of constitution. But, he is much more than that, He is an econimist which has greater role in establishment of Reserve Bank of India which shows his intelligence. He also favour gender equality for which he come up with Hindu Code Bill. 
Dr B. R. Ambedkar devoted his whole life for dalits people. So that equal rights to all can be provided. He succeed in his mission when fundamental rights for all can be added in Constitution of India. 
Story of Dr Ambedkar is full of challenges, which he overcome and attain a height, where he rewarded as Bharat Ratna.
To tribute his legacy I think we need to know him closely by reading his thoughts and works he has written. This is true tribute for our God.

sadiyo ka santap (सदियों का संताप) By Omprakash Valmiki

History knows that people express their feelings in different manner like storey telling, autobiography, biography and poetic form. But as you see in Dalit Literature you find their is scarcity of each topics. It might has several reasons like, -
1.People are not much qualified.
2.There is lack of capability in them. Or
3. No existence of intellectual. 
But suddenly you found about the Mahatma Phule, Dr B.R.Ambedkar etc. And you realise something very scary is happening, and then If you go in details then you know people are enemy of dalits they don't even treat them like human being, So they tried to downgrade the power of Dalits. As I say - If you want to erase life of people then erase their history, which is the moto behind it. Just erase their history. 
About the BookA poetic narrative of dalit atrocities is painfully written by Omprakash Valmiki. This is pain of people which they face from centuries. 
This is struggle of people which in time being taken the shape of a book. When you go through this book you find discrimination and intolerance in the society which is core of Valmiki writing. 
A must go through book.
