Manusmṛiti Burning Movement
When Dr. B.R. Ambedkar set fire to the Manusmriti in 1927, he was not simply burning a book—he was challenging centuries of caste and gender inequality. This series traces the battle behind that historic fire and its lasting impact on India's struggle for equality, dignity, and justice.
