What would Dr. Ambedkar do? 

Slip of the Pen highly condemns the Indian Parliament's efforts to censor an 11th standard text book by the National Council of Educational Research titled "Constitution, why and how".

The book contains a cartoon, first published in 1949 by Shankar Pillai (see below), that shows Dr. Ambedkar on a snail with a whip in his hand, followed by Nehru with another whip in his hand. The cartoon was mocking the slow progress of the constitution.

 How is this an insult to Dr.Ambedkar?

I understand people have a propensity to make Gods of men, but that doesn't change the fact that Dr. Ambedkar was a man, and man hopefully with a sense of humor.

The brilliance of Indian constitution is that it allows for  free speech, and banning a cartoon that pulls the leg of its architect does disservice to the document and democracy.
