Saffronisation of Dr Ambedkar Memorial Park, Lucknow – BJP to Install Maharana Pratap and Prithviraj Chauhan Statues


Since coming to power in Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath led BJP/RSS government has failed to protect Dalits-Muslims and atrocities on them have increased day by day. Now, Yogi Adityanath is ready to attack Dalit-Bahujan history with his evil plans.

In 2008, BSP government had built Dr. Ambedkar Memorial Park (Bhimrao Ambedkar Samajik Parivartan Sthal) in Lucknow, giving the right place to Dalit-Bahujan heroes which have been denied for centuries.  Statues and information about Dr. Ambedkar, Kanshi Ram, Ramabai Ambedkar, Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj, Kabir Das, Sant Ravidas, Jyotiba Phule, Birsa Munda, Narayana Guru and Guru Ghasidas etc were provided at the Dr. Ambedkar Memorial Park in Lucknow.

Yogi Adityanath led BJP government is busy destroying the Dalit-Bahujan history. A few days ago, Manyawar Kanshi Ram Eco Park was set on fire, which destroyed the park and now BJP/RSS government is saffronizing Dr Ambedkar Memorial Park. Cabinet minister in Yogi Adityanath government, Om Prakash Rajbhar has decided to put up statues of Suhel Dev Rajbhar at Dr. Ambedkar Memorial Park. Minister has proposed to put 2 statues of Suhel Dev Rajbhar, one inside the Dr Ambedkar Park and another outside.

BJP/RSS government of Uttar Pradesh has decided to install a bronze statue of Suhel Dev Rajbhar, 16-18 feet tall, inside the Ambedkar Memorial. Another statue of Suhel Dev Rajbhar, in white marble, will be placed on a platform outside the memorial, the report says.

Further, the minister is planning to install statues of Maharana Pratap and Prithviraj Chauhan at the Dr Ambedkar Memorial Park. It’s a height of appropriation of Dalit-Bahujan history! These are attempts by RSS/BJP to grab Dr Ambedkar Memorial Park and use it for its own propaganda.

We wouldn’t be surprised if slowly and slowly RSS/BJP replace all the statues of Dalit-Bahujan heroes with some fictitious characters and turn Dr Ambedkar Memorial Park into some Brahminical temple and start earning money!

Dr Ambedkar Memorial Park was the dream project of BSP chief Mayawati and an attempt to preserve Dalit-Bahujan history but RSS/BJP government of Uttar Pradesh is distorting the whole plan and park.

    Why the statues of other Indian leaders cannot be put? Why not also put statues of Muslim leaders. I think the dalits have become the Brahmins of today and cannot tolerate any non dalit person
