Ambedkar proposed outlawing the Vedas, shastras, and puranas by law

Evidence

There should be one and only one standard book of Hindu religion, acceptable to all Hindus and recognised by all Hindus. This of course means that all other books of Hindu religion such as Vedas, shastras, and puranas, which are treated as sacred and authoritative, must by law cease to be so, and the preaching of any doctrine, religious or social, contained in these books should be penalised. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 1001
