520 |a Rajendra Pal Gautam, a former minister of Delhi government, made headlines when he resigned from his position in the face of an allegation by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that accused him of insulting Hindu gods. Gautam who is a member of the Aam Admi Party (AAP), had attended a Buddhist conversion ceremony on October 5, 2022 (Joshi 2022) where he took an oath to renounce the Hindu pantheon. However, interestingly, this particular oath is one of the twenty-two vows that B.R. Ambedkar administered to his followers when he led the mass conversion ceremony in 1956. Needless to say, these vows are held by Ambedkarite Buddhists as guidelines for social revolution. The AAP-BJP conflict concerning Gautam’s conversion oath speaks volumes about the relevance of Ambedkar’s resistance to Brahmanical philosophy and the Hindu caste order in contemporary India. Ambedkar who did not dissociate religion from the social, emphasized the need for a strong moral foundation upon which a free, equal society could be erected. His quest for a eutopic world is vividly traced in V. Geetha’s book as she examines Ambedkar’s understanding of socialism through his study of Buddhism.
