Abhijeet Dipke gets offer from Union minister to join NDA: ‘He is an Ambedkarite’

Union Minister Ramdas Athawale has urged CJP convenor Abhijeet Dipke to join the Republican Party of India (A) to fulfill Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar's vision and strengthen society and the party. Known for its Dalit Buddhist movement and Ambedkarite ideology, the RPI (A) is an apolitical party that supports the NDA in the Indian Parliament.

As the sole MP representing the RPI (A) in Parliament, Athawale is also the Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment. Dipke, who recently returned from the US, stated that the CJP will serve as a pressure group instead of becoming a political party. His recent agitation against the NEET-UG paper leak and his proposal for government school reforms have gained attention.

Dipke's campaign, "School Thik Karo," aims to improve government school conditions by encouraging government officials and teachers to enroll their children in public schools.
