It was a clash between two values which led to a political malaise over the reservation issue for years until it was resolved after Independence with the adoption of the Constitution, which Ambedkar helped draw up. Sadly, during his lifetime, neither his intellectual rigour nor political sagacity received recognition. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e In recent years, Dalit scholars like Narendra Yadav, Anand Telumbde and Gail Omvedt have tried to make amends. In his detailed narrative, which was in the works for 15 years, Raja Sekhar Vundru deals with an important aspect of Ambedkar's life-his role in devising our electoral system. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Decades after Mandalisation and reservation conceded by successive governments, it seems unbelievable that there were such lengthy debates and differences, including mistrust, over the issue. As part of constitutional reforms, the British were keen to bring about adequate representation to different religions and groups in the legislatures at the Centre and in the States and broker a deal. There were three Round Table Conferences held in London-Ambedkar attended all the meetings while Gandhi attended only the second. Vundru meticulously records the developments both in formal and informal sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cfont color=\"red\" size=\"5\"\u003e**Contents and Sample Pages**\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390b.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390c.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390d.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390e.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390f.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390g.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390h.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390i.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390j.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390k.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390l.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390m.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uar390n.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Occultnthings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44651211850029,"sku":"UAR390","price":64.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2094\/2117\/products\/uar390.jpg?v=1677966805","url":"https:\/\/occultnthings.com\/products\/socio-economic-and-political-vision-of-dr-b-r-ambedkar-uar390","provider":"Occult-N-Things","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
