Why are statues of Indian icon Ambedkar being caged?

Responding to a previous post which was also posted on Facebook Ramarao Kanneganti asked "The more we learn about the atrocities that went on in the name of caste, the more the mind boggles. Perhaps, life was cheap then. How much comparable was it to the other massacres, the other atrocities of kings against the subjects is something I want to understand. I do not know what the legal system was and how strict it was etc. I feel out of depth in most of these matters." I keep posting these because it is not all past, it is present.
