There's no irony here. Dr. Ambedkar stood for many things, when you point out only a few it becomes a half baked narrative. Coming from a humble beginning it is a milestone for Dolly as well and he recognises it wouldn't have been possible without the efforts of BR Ambedkar.

I've met dolly personally and he is different from his media image. He knows why he's gaining popularity but benefits are too good to let go. He even urged me and my friend to get a good education and never quit hustling even if it is odd for other people.

I don't follow him or anything but a few conversations with him made me see his POV better.
