HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024
*World Peace: Need of Entire Humanity*

Always and in all times, world peace remains the most important concern of scholars, statesmen and spiritual visionaries. Emmanuel Kant, imminent German philosopher, wrote his seminal book entitled 'Perpetual Peace' in response to such widespread human anxiety about the survival of life on our only known living planet in the cosmos. He was of the firm opinion that perpetual peace could be secured only through an international federation of republican states and international cooperation. In other words, international cooperation is the only key to world peace. But unfortunately, what the world has been experiencing for the last few decades, especially since the end of the Cold War as well as the demise of the USSR, is the opposite. Continuing protracted conflicts in Syria, Ukraine, and now in Gaza, the way they are being handled can any time snowball into major global conflicts with serious implications for the whole of humanity. The year 2023 witnessed two complex conflicts, which do not seem to come to an end along with its coming to closer and giving way to the coming New Year. The children, young, old, women and men all in the territories of Ukraine and Gaza have been passing through such a terrible phase that no one can afford to ignore. But it is also pathetic that the entire plethora of happenings of insane cruelties have been allowed to pass through the human eye silently. Let us pray for the peaceful resolution of these conflicts for clearing of dark clouds of World War hovering over our heads and pledge to make 2024 a year for the beginning of perpetual peace - the vision of one of the most brilliant philosophers of the world!

Wishing you all peaceful, safe and healthy New Year!!

It is matter of great privilege and honor to share with the contributors, supporters, readers, and the sympathizers of the “Ambedkar Times” (English Weekly) that this small initiative being formally taken on March 15, 2009 has successfully completed ten years of continuance service in the memory of Sahib Shri Kanshi Ram Ji – founder President of BAMCEF, DS4 and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP). It was dedicated to him and his mission for the emancipation and empowerment of the downtrodden. After reading the most valuable writings of Bodhi Sattva Bharat Ratan Babasaheb Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, Sahib Shri Kanshi Ram Ji renounced the family life and devoted his entire time and energy till his last breath for the uplift of the Bahujan Samaj. The Ambedkar Times (Weekly Newspaper) has been named after the name of the messiah of the downtrodden, chief-architect of the constitution of Independent India, world reputed Social Scientist and the first Minister of Law of independent India - Bodhi Sattva Bharat Ratan Babasaheb Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar - to keep ourselves reminded of our immense social debut to him and the moral duty to do our best towards keeping the mission alive and sanguinely going on.

Once again, it is matter of great pleasure to put on records for me that we are grateful to all our supporters, well-wishers, sympathizers, contributors and esteemed readers for immensely helping me in keeping this initiative alive against all odds. I am confident that with the support of all of you, “Ambedkar Times” will keep on serving the community with its bold, transparent and socially valuable inputs.

Ambedkartimes.com is duty bound to highlight all such incidents as well as to seek and articulate some solid perspective for the amelioration of this age-old problem old social exclusion and blatant violation of the basic human rights of the Dalit brethren.
