The Mandal’s cancellation was triggered by Ambedkar’s Amritsar appearance, not his address

Evidence

I feel sure that the views expressed in my address have little to do with the decision of your committee. I have reason to believe that my presence at the Sikh Prachar Conference held at Amritsar has had a good deal to do with the decision of the committee. Nothing else can satisfactorily explain the sudden volte-face shown by the committee between the 14th and the 22nd April. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 790
