i could not find ambedkar's quotes in your other
mails, but i presume you mean the comments made here:

do you want me to comment on this?

That the Aryans of the Rig Veda did kill cows for
purposes of food and ate beef is abundantly clear from
the Rig Veda itself. In Rig Veda (X. 86.14) Indra
says: “They cook for one 15 plus twenty oxen”. The
Rig Veda (X.91.14) says that for Agni were sacrificed
horses, bulls, oxen, barren cows and rams. From the
Rig Veda (X.72.6) it appears that the cow was killed
with a sword or axe.
