‘हिंदू राष्ट्राची संकल्पना जर प्रत्यक्षात उतरली तर या देशावर कोसळलेली ती एक भयानक आपत्ती असेल यात संशय नाही. हिदू त्याबद्दल काहीही म्हणोत,पण हिंदुत्व हे स्वातंत्र्य,समता व बंधुता यांचे अंतक असेल,या अर्थाने हिंदुत्व हे लोकशाहीविरोधी आहे. म्हणून कोणतीही किंमत द्यावी लागली तरी आपण हिंदू राज्य घडू देता कामा नये.’ – डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर
