Memories of Mangaon

The Film explores the memories of people from Mangoan. Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, then 29 years old, had just returned to India from Columbia University in the United States, where he had earned his M.A. and PhD. He started discussions and gatherings with the Dalit community in support of social rights. The first public gathering presided by Babasaheb took place at the Mangaon Conference on March 21, 1920 along with Chatrapati Shahu Maharaj.
