394 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES
I said that the Scheduled Castes and the Backward Classes form majority of the population of the country. There is no reason why they should not rule this country. All that is necessary is to organize for the purpose of capturing political power—which is your own because of adult suffrage. People do not seem to buck up courage because they are overwhelmed by the belief that the Congress Government is there forever. I said, this is a wrong impression. In a popular democracy no Government is permanent and not even the Government established by the two of the tallest Congressmen, Pandit Nehru and Sardar Patel. If you organize, you can even capture that Government.
I am sure, the reader will notice that any suggestion made that I attacked the Congress Organization or my colleagues is a travesty of facts.”
