The state government will allocate funds for restoration of Ambedkar Bhavan — the recently demolished structure from where Dr BR Ambedkar had first launched the Dalit movement — if the two grandsons of the Dalit icon prepare a joint plan, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said in the Legislative Council yesterday.

Ambedkar Bhavan, located in Central Mumbai, was demolished last month by the People’s Improvement Trust, claiming that the ‘dilapidated’ structure would be replaced by a grander one.
