On a question raised regarding the alleged religious conversion prevailing in Jharkhand, Ambedkar said that some people use unfair means for the same, which is not right. “There is a law to prevent this and everybody should follow it. RSS has been against this practice,” he said. Ambedkar also said that RSS volunteers are doing service work across the country. Along with service, emphasis is also laid on self-reliance so that the person receiving the services becomes self-reliant.
