The brief English summary of Ambedkar’s speech in Marathi at a massive public event organised by his supporters on October 28, 1954, includes the following: “He further said that it was wrong to presume that he was a brilliant student from the beginning. He was an ordinary boy like other boys in his community. He said that his father did not care to maintain the record of his birth date and his exact date of birth was not known. He might be above sixty or below sixty. He said that it was true that he was born about 12 midnight, and his mother had great pains at the time of his birth. He further said that when he was born, the stars were bad and it was told by the astrologer that his mother would die soon. He was therefore hated by his brothers and sisters. He said that after the death of his mother he was brought up by (sic) aunt. He said that he had gone through religious books like Mahabharat, Bhagwat Gita in his young days but when he came across the book about Gautam Buddha, it had great impression on him and since that time he became the follower of Buddha. (Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Writings and Speeches, Vol 17 (3)). Ambedkar (1891-1956) had shared his experiences from childhood on two previous occasions: in a speech that justified religious conversion at a public rally in Thane in 1936; and, in the first of the six parts that make up Waiting for a Visa, an excursus in autobiography undertaken around 1946-47 to give “foreigners” “an idea of the way untouchables are treated by the caste Hindus.”
