Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar (2000)

Mohan Gokhale: Mahatma Gandhi

Quotes 

• Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar : Gandhi-ji, I have no homeland.

  Mahatma Gandhi : But this is your homeland, Dr. Ambedkar, and from the reports that have reached me of your work at the Round Table Conference, I know that you are a patriot of sterling worth.

  Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar : How can we call this land our home when we are treated worse than cats and dogs? And the injustices inflicted upon us are so enormous that if we should ever be disloyal, the fault will lie with this land, and not with us. The Congress men oppose our movement and dub me a traitor, and you call me a patriot. All I know is, I have been trying to win elementary human rights for my people without meaning or doing any harm to this land. You can call me a traitor or a patriot. I don't care for either label.

• Mahatma Gandhi : Every known religion would fail, if judged by the standards of Dr. Ambedkar.

• Mahatma Gandhi : Religion is not like a house or a cloak, which can be changed at will.

• Mahatma Gandhi : [referring to Ambedkar]  I think a sufferer should write the constitution of free India.

• Mahatma Gandhi : I would rather Hinduism died than untouchability lived.
