Explanation:
While we are celebrating Ambedkar Jayanti today, the question sounds absurd as it relates to an Indian statesman who showed constant dedication to the wellbeing of his country and who contributed more than anyone else to the drafting of its Constitution — arguably one of the best in the world. But this is a time of absurd questions, it seems, and the responses may be eye-opening.
The first reason why Ambedkar may be accused of being anti-national has to do with his attitude towards the freedom movement, beyond his antagonistic relationship with Mahatma Gandhi. During the first session of the All-India Depressed Classes Congress (AIDCC), on August 8, 1930, at Nagpur, he opposed the project of India’s independence, which the Congress had promoted a few months before, in December 1929, during its Karachi session, under pressure from Jawaharlal Nehru. The AIDCC argued that “The depressed classes welcomed the British as their deliverers from age-long tyranny and oppression by the orthodox Hindus”.

He did not consider India as a nation because for him dignity mattered more.
- He didn't think of people who were divided into various castes as a community. The national revolution, he believed, was dominated by an elite, with the groups as the first victims.
- Instead of nationalism he preferred Humanism more. Humanism, with its egalitarian and libertarian ideals.
- As a result, he was seen as a nation changer as well as a builder. With his cooperation he was also able to promote the Indian military and combat the axis forces.
