This year also, the government has issued orders declaring 14th April, the Birthday of Bharat Ratna Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar, as Public holiday in the last moment. Year after year, this practice is going on. We have several times demanded that the date may be permanently declared as holiday as in the case of holidays like Independence Day and Republic day.

Dr. Ambedkar, the architect of the Indian Constitution and an icon of the SC/ST and Backward classes deserves such an honour. Let the government discuss and take a decision without delay.
