Answer» There is a lot of difference between being punished for a mistake and being discriminated against. Punishment is given to those who commit a mistake or a wrong without showing any discrimination. More than that punishment is corporal but discrimination has an effect on one’s psyche, dignity, and character. But the discrimination is shown based on one’s birth and social status. Punishing those who commit wrongs defends the rights of other people. But discrimination denies the people their freedom, equality, respect, and dignity of the victims. The child Ambedkar did no wrong, so he was not supposed to be punished. But he was discriminated against because of his caste and thus he was denied social equality, self-respect, and dignity. |
