Centenary of the Mahad Satyagraha (1927–2027)
The Mahad Satyagraha of 1927, led by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, stands as a powerful milestone in the struggle for dignity and equality. On 19–20 March 1927 in Mahad (present-day Maharashtra), thousands of Dalits, guided by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, asserted their right to draw water from the Chavdar Tale, boldly challenging caste-based injustice.
As this historic movement completes 100 years in 2027, it continues to inspire the ongoing fight for human rights and social justice.
