Republican Sena
Indian political party
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Republican Sena (translation: Republican Army; abbr. RS) is a political party in India.[1][2][3] It was founded by Anandraj Ambedkar on 21 November 1998. Anandraj Ambedkar is a son of Yashwant Ambedkar and grandson of B. R. Ambedkar.[4][5] The party is based on the ideology of B. R. Ambedkar (Ambedkarism), and is primarily based in the state of Maharashtra.[6][7][8][9][10][11] Republican Sena's supporters occupied the Indu Mills Compound at Dadar, Mumbai in 2011 to highlight the long-pending demand for the Statue of Equality, the under-construction memorial at the compound dedicated to B. R. Ambedkar.[11][12] The party has also worked with the Vanchit Bahujan Aaghadi party, headed by Anandraj's elder brother Prakash Yashwant Ambedkar.[1][2][3]
