He also highlighted social issues that bedeviled India such as untouchability and fought for the rights of lower caste Hindus.


“The Consulate General of India, Dubai will remain closed on Wednesday (April 14) on account of the birth anniversary of Dr. BR Ambedkar,” the consulate tweeted on Monday.
